best way to listen to books (iPhone, iTunes, iPod, sync)

[kelly237]

I put this in the general section because I am fairly
new to my mac book, iphone & ipod & itunes..

I want to start listening to books & sermons
on my ipod while exercising and in bed.

The iphone would be fine to, because I usually have it with me ,
but wondered about data usage to download to the phone..
Also the ipod is smaller for exercising...

Do I just download to my mac & then to itunes
and then sync with ipod?? Is there an easier way??

Sometimes I want my 1980's cassettes back LOL

I guess it depends on where you like to be, and what you like to do when you listen.

eBooks are very overly priced, in my strong opinion.
