It is, it does, and I have.

If you just plug an iPod into a PC without installing anything, it will show up as a removable drive. Just copy the music into iPod_Control/Music/F00 and you are good to go (you may have to enable viewing hidden folders). You can also put any files on it, just as you would a USB key.

Similarly, if you have installed iTunes, just go to Edit-Preferences-iPod-General and check "Enable Disk Use", which will stop iTunes from taking your iPod hostage. The only downside to this is that whenever your iPod is plugged in, it will show the "Do not Disconnect" logo, and you will need to either open iTunes and click eject or use the "Stop Hardware" icon in your taskbar before disconnecting.

Finally, if you are going for replacement headphones, I highly recommend the Sony MDR-ES71SL. They are by far the best portable headphones I have ever used, and you can even get white ones that match your iPod (although you usually will pay a bit more for white).
