    jailbreak

    two options here for you. spirit wich can be downloaded from the net (google it)

    or the other that is even eayser. open safari on youe ipod. go to jailbreakme.com and follow the prompt. easy as a poke in the eye

    you can still connect to itunes but if you update you will loose the jailbreak and it will be hard (if not impossable) to get back.

    when you do jailbreak and run cidya (will install itself when you jailbreak) it will ask you if you want to 'make your life easyer' do it. it will help if for any reason you loose your jailbreak. post back when you jailbreak and ill tell you how to get your apps ffor you.
    all the best

        go to your sources in cydia find/search "installous" dl apps,then find "mxtube" dl this u-ttube style music vids etc.etc..

        ps... think u need to get a app from itunes first before installous

          in cidya go to manage then sources then press edit (top right corner) then add (top left corner) then type in cydia.hackulo.us and add the source. ignore the warning (add anyway) install appsync for whatever your ios is. then hackulous security (importaint) then installous. you can find almost any app from there. have fun. if you have any other questions ask away. ill answer them if i can. hope this helps :-)
