you access the downloads on your computer and provides a backup if you delete purchased content from iPod touch.

Purchased content is synced to the “Purchased on <name of your iPod touch>” playlist. iTunes creates the playlist if it doesn’t exist. iTunes also copies your purchases to the Purchased playlist that iTunes uses for purchases you make on your computer, if that playlist exists and is set to sync with iPod touch.

Downloaded podcasts are synced to the Podcast list in your iTunes library.

Changing the Browse Buttons

You can replace the Music, Podcasts, Videos, and Search buttons at the bottom of the screen with ones you use more frequently. For example, if you download audiobooks often but don’t watch many videos, you could replace the Videos button with Audiobooks.
