It has been nearly two years since I took the last look at the Winamp iPod plugin which has gone a long way since then. Now every iPod generation and edition is supported by the plugin which gives Winamp users the option to manage their iPod from the Winamp Media Library.
Like iTunes the Winamp iPod plugin can sync songs, ratings and other information between a connected iPod and the Winamp Media Library. The default process makes only sense if the Media Library on the PC would fit on the iPod, if that is not the case the user needs to pick songs that get synced so that their total size is below the capacity of the iPod.
Songs, Videos and Photos can be copied to the iPod using the plugin. There are also some features to manipulate songs before they are moved to the iPod including replay gain, gapless playback, lyrics and album art.
It’s definitely a great software for those users who do not want to download and install the Apple iTunes software which is without doubt resource hungry.

This actually works with the iPod Touch? Really?! That’d be amazing if I could ditch iTunes once and for all.
Well the FAQ states: iPhones and iPod Touch is supported now in a limited way.

You don’t need any plugin to sync iPod. Winamp comes with the ability to do so.
If the size of media files is larger than your iPod capacity. Winamp will give me a warning saying not all files will be copied but WILL fill it up to the limit. It is like iTune.
I’ve been using Winamp and ditched iTune couple of years ago.
Thnx alot, works like a charm =D
