I'd recommend keeping the Sony Reader for ebooks and the iPod for music and podcasts.
Using the music player built into the Sony Reader will drain the battery much more quickly than just reading books. Also, a single 3 minute music track takes up as much memory as a long novel.
But if you want to do it anyway, the first thing to do is to "rip" the CD - that is, get your computer to read it in and convert to AAC (or MP3) format. As you have an iPod, presumably you also have iTunes installed. iTunes will convert the tracks on your CD to AAC files, and you can then copy them to the appropriate folder on your Sony Reader.

Can someone give me some instruction on how to do this? Or should I just delete what is in there and save the memory for books? I can always put my ipod on, which does not sound like a bad idea now. But, I wanted to learn about my new toy.
Thank you for any help you can give me.
