*sigh*

iTunes is the best overall product out there for maintaining your catalog of music. I *do not* have an ipod, but I'm a happy iTunes user.

I get much of my digital music from my own collection of cds. I rip my own tracks and let iTunes deal with the librarian work. When the time comes to copy the songs to my device (a little sandisk unit), I create a playlist with the desired songs, then drag the playlist from iTunes to Windows Explorer and over the "removable drive" that is the music player and drop it. The files are all copied to the music player, I disconnect and rock out.

You should try it. Seriously. What have you got to lose? iTunes is free, you already have the music player. For your own ripped/locally ripped mp3 files, there is no DRM b*llsh*t to manage. Point click and ship. Easy as pie.
