Downloading music has long been one of those "don't ask, don't tell" kind of things. If you don't know how to download music or are otherwise against it, then your best option would probably be to hit up a local second-hand cd store. You can get some good music for cheap that way.

And yes, you can use mp3's from anywhere on your iPod. I backed up part of my CD collection and put it on my iPod a few months ago. Now I can't live without the thing.
