Before you go further, do you have a memory card? That is, by far, the easiest way to use a Pocket PC to play music. In fact, the best way is to use a desktop reader to copy music onto a folder on the memory card. Then, stick in the memory card in the Pocket PC, open up PocketMusic, and just open the files from the "Storage Card".

After looking around awhile I've gone back to using MusicMatch Jukebox for ripping MP3's from CDs. I still use Janak's method too! Getting a card reader and copying and pasting with the PC's file explorer is much faster than any programs transfer to device option.MusicMatch Jukebox can be downloaded here (http://www.musicmatch.com/).
