you can have two seperate accounts on the pc(with there name password etc when they turn on the pc)
each account can have different music on their own itunes.

Have them each make a playlist of the songs they like, then have the iPod only sync with that particular playlist.

This might sound really stupid but how do I go about doing this?
How do I get it to only update the certain music?
See, My bro got an iPod yesterday and he doesn't like all of the music I like so iTunes made him a playlist called "Mike's iPod Selection" when he tried to plug in his 2gb iPod nano into my library with over 1500 songs so that he can update his iPod and it only puts those songs on. The problem is, when I update my iPod it puts the "Mike's iPod Selection" playlist as a playlist in my iPod too. Is there anyway to stop this?

You would have to make a playlist of all your music, and then set your iPod to update those specific playlists - minus Mike's

I tried that but all it does is make 2 playlists on my ipod 1 called Mike's iPod and one called Greg's iPod [My music]. How do I make the iPod strictly update what is in a certain playlist without having to put both playlists on both iPods.

Ok, I feel like I should of figured thisd out before. All I did was put a shortcut for iTunes in my brothers user account on Windows XP and filled it with his songs. It was simple lol. Lest time I tried to install a fresh copy of iTunes cause I though if I put a shortcut it would open it and have all my songs and I would be back to square one. I guess I was wrong. Thanks for the help guys.
