Windows won't recognize my Shuffle

This may seem late. Oh, well.

I just got mine from FedEx this morning. When I plugged it in it was recognized as a USB drive immediately. Am using XP Pro with Service Pack 2.

MY problem is it wont play files copied onto the drive. I thought I could just move some mp3's over and then play 'em. You know? Like on EVERY OTHER DEVICE OUT THERE!

No such luck. I read the instructions and it would seem I need to install iTunes and convert over any music I want played on that thing. I HATE itunes and darn sure dont want any apple software installed on my system.
Seem to recall a thread on Anandtech that had a few alternatives apps for iPods. Never paid much attention since I never thought I'd own one. If I cant find something else I'll be calling Newegg for an RMA soon.
