Angry heck, i still dont know

how to play the videos that come with some songs on my itunes jukebox [pc] and i assume that the videos wont play on my ipod.
don't laugh! i'm new to the ipod world. [3G]

i read the short directions on apple.com about how to view the videos and i do have MP4 songs but the video will only play if i go out the website and play it from the video music store.

example: i bought "girl" by destiny child from the music store last week. this week i learned about the video music store, so i went there and saw "girl", well i dont want to buy it again and i dont understand why if i already bought the song [and they cost the same] the video wont save to my itunes music library so i can watch the video play when i listen to the song on my computer.

and i dont see a difference in the format when i select the song from the itune music store or from the itunes video music store.

someone please help! i'm a fast learner, once i have a lil direction.

You can watch the videos but not buy them nor are you able to keep them. When you purchase a song you only get the song not the video. The video instructions are for videos other than the music store videos.

The videos being made available in iTunes may be in preparation for a 5G iPod w/video capabilities???? This is what I'm thinking. So we may be able to purchase videos at a later date.

Actually if you buy the full album from a artist, you get videos that way. You can't just buy the single, you have to buy the full album. Then it downloads into your itunes list and you can play it anytime you want too. Not all albums have them though. So far The BackStreet Boys, Foo Fighters and Gorillaz are some of the first to have them. It's kind of a incentive to get one to buy the full album instead of just the singles.
