I have a 30 GB video iPod, and im currently using iTunes 7.5.0.20. I want to know the different music managment applications which are avaiable supporting ipod.

I also want to know about the linux alternatives. :))

You can try Yamipod

Some of my students use it, its cross platform

@infra - he started it :D

in linux - i can say the best thing about linux is its ipod support no need of itunes or nething ...

just plugin ur ipod into ubuntu and rythm box opens it copy paste songs on the fly .... (iv tried from the ipod to the pc but not the other way till now)

personally for windows itunes is the best (though iv heard tht wmp11 is as good) ... i dont like yamipod for some reason
