My son got a MP3 player for Christmas, what do I do to get music on it. I was told I-Tunes would not work?

Update:

It is a Trio and the directions are not clear at all.

    If all fails call the information line.. he probably needs to be hooked up to some sort of player on line, like itunes, but there are plenty of them.

    just install the software for it ( Most Mp3 Players come with a disc with the software loaded on it) after that get a file sharing program I recommend http://www.limewire.com/ then plug the mp3 player into your computer via the USB cord ..most computers will pop up and tell you that there is a portable storage divice...after that just go to my computer select the portable divice...then drag and drop the music files into the proper folder....have fun

    Connect it to USB port of a PC .ThePC will detect it.You can copy/drag &drop music files from any drive of your PC [including CD drive] to your MP3 Player.That's it.Please note that the music files to be transferred/copied must be in mp3 format.If the music filles are in .wav format,you'll have to convert them in mp3 format by using some sound editing softwarelike stienberg Nuendo.

    if the mp3 player takes usb cable (which most does )you just connect that on to ypur computer and download music that is saved on you computer theusb cable is usually called removeable disk j and you can find that on your `my computer` .now,if you dont have any saved into your computer go to bearshare.com and download the software on to your computer after that you can get any music you want!
