It really is as simple as that although sometimes people try and make it much more complicated (to their own detriment).
There aren’t actual limits overall, but depending on what type of transfer cable you get, there are limits on the amount you can iPod to PC transfer at any one time. Usually, the more expensive the cable, the more you can transfer at any one given time.

If you just want to transfer the occasional song, movie or TV show, that’s fine, but if you want to transfer things like video games or dozens of songs, movies or TV shows per day, then you definitely want to invest in a more expensive cable.
