Plug your iPod into your computer and open iTunes. On side menu of iTunes you will see an iPod symbol (this is under Devices, the third category down). Click on the iPod symbol and scroll down to the third category, Options. Click on SYNC ONLY CHECKED SONGS AND VIDEOS. Then go to your iTunes library and un-check all of the songs and/or videos that you do not want on your iPod. This will allow you to keep your iTunes music, but it will take it off your iPod.

Or you could just get a duplicatefinder to find and delete the duplicate songs in iTunes, I have a great experience with Cisdem DuplicateFinder, could have a try.

Are zunes better than ipods?

iPods are the most popular mp3 / mp4 players but like anything else they do have their limitations. For example, you cannot delete files directly from your iPod. You have to attach the iPod to your computer and sync it through the iTunes software. There are other brands of mp3 / mp4 players which enable users to delete music, picture and video files without having to connect to a computer. Some people say that Creative Zen MP3 players give you more flexibility but can be difficult to use. I have alot of questions for Ipods. They are difficult to use and quirky.

You need itunes for your ipod. MP3 players will do fine with windows media player, but apple thinks they need a new music library. It is basically a library for ipods. I wish all ipods and mp3s and zunes used the same music library but they dont. hope this helped! :)
