If you bought your old mp3's through a music service other then iTunes, you will not be able to put them onto your iPod Touch because they will have different DRM then Apple's Fairplay. However, if those songs were not obtained from a music service, you could just copy away.

Also, forgot to mention, but if you bought them from Amazon's music store, which I would highly recomment next time you're shopping online, you're fine. They don't have any DRM on them, and they are at a slightly higher bitrate then iTunes which means better sound quality on your end.

I do believe Walmart has DRM-free music so you should be OK, but don't hold me to that.

The new touch has a new bezel, new aesthetics on the back, and the volume keys are physically stationary on the side.

Also, don't get your hopes up with the internal speaker; I'm sure its just a plain mono speaker. I hear horrible things about the sound quality and, to quote Mr. Jobs, "This isn't for audiophiles."

so it would be better just to get the old touch if you don't want the speakers

pretty much. if it was me, I would do that and save a few bucks. if you can't find a used one on your own, the apple website has some decent refurbished deals.

just download it from www.apple.com/itunes/download . usually itunes does not come w/ the newer iPods.
