Default Limewire formats and Creative Zen M Video Player
Hi

Am considering purchasing a :
Creative ZEN Vision:M 30GB MP3 / Video Player - Green

And I noticed in the tech spec it says the supported formats for video display are:

MPEG-4 SP, XviD, DivX 5.0, DivX 4.0, MPEG-2, MPEG-1, Motion JPEG, WMVM

I am brand new to the whole download thing but when I search using Limewire I notice the vast majority of what I want to download and watch is in avi format.

Are any of the formats above another name for avi or do you have to download the avi and then convert it somehow?

And if you have to convert it , is it :

a) Hard to do ?
b) Time Consuming
c) Remove any quality from audio or video ?

What do people generally do when trying to transfer video from Limewire to Ipod or equivalent?
