Hi Harry,

If you install Rockbox on your iPod, you can use Windows Explorer to 
copy music from your PC to your iPod. However, Rockbox will not rip 
CDs to your computer. You will need some other program to do this; 
iTunes is an option, as is the free CDEx or Windows Media Player. 
Many people have had good luck with CDEx.
If you'd like an introduction to iPods and Rockbox, visit the 
Portable Players Portal at
www.hartgen.org
You might also be interested in my book on MP3 players, which has 
detailed information about both. It's available from National Braille Press
www.nbp.org
for $14 and is called A Pocketful of Sound.

As for uninstalling iTunes, since you just installed it, if you 
really don't want it, the easiest thing is probably to do a system 
restore to a time prior to installing it. Then you'll know for sure 
you uninstalled all of it.
HTH,
Anna
