The connector that I use to access my apple ipod via my computer is the USB 2.0 data cable.
This small and inconspicuous lead in my opinion is invaluable. Not only does it allow ease of connection to your computer, but it is a cable that most computers accept. I prefer this wire to the one with the firewire connector as it allows me to go and connect to most computer be it a Mac or a PC.
The connection is quick with it being a USB device and this allows me transfer files, be them into i-tunes or in the mass storage that I have.
This wire is also a life saver if i need to charge my ipod as sometimes I do not have the plug. This cable allows you to charge your ipod through any USB connection.
This is a must have for anyone who uses there ipod at work or at home and in my opinion having a couple is a good idea.
