I haven't done that, not having an iPod, so I'll have to suggest one of 
the linux/iPod groups through gmane for details.

To my knowledge, it would the same as format support for most any other 
distro, perhaps even better.  There are the usual legal problems with 
downloading codecs, of course.

Aside from the legal question of whether or not to download the codecs, I 
understand that it's quite a smooth process.  Was there a particular 
format you had in mind?
