About the iTunes Music Store
Using iTunes, you can preview, purchase, and download your favorite songs from
the iTunes Music Store (available in some countries/regions only). There are
hundreds of thousands of songs available for purchase. You can use an Apple
Account to purchase songs from the music store, or if you have an America
Online (AOL) account, you can use that.
To browse for and purchase music:
1 Open iTunes and click Music Store in the Source list.
2 Click the Account button and follow the onscreen instructions to set up an account
or enter your existing Apple Account or AOL account information.
You can only have music from five different Music Store accounts on one iPod.
For more information about the iTunes Music Store, open iTunes and choose
