Ok i kind of feel like an idiot but I have searched everywhere and cannot find an answer. When you jailbreak your I-Pod touch with Spirit and download Cydia (which I know how to do, please no comments about that) do you lose your music also? and if so, can you still purchase/ download music from itunes?

you dont lose your music, and yes you can still update/buy songs from itunes.

dont update the firmeware on your ipod though until you know it is safe and there has been another jailbreak released for any newer firmware apple releases.

a few things i recommend downloading for youripod from cydia are:

-winterboard
-bosspaper
-SBsettings
-lockdown
-gb4iphone
-nes

good luck. i've been cracking my ipods since my ipod color in like 2005 where i got it to play movies and gameboy and doom and stuff. so if you need any help, feel more than welcome to ask me.

Use spirit to do it. You just click a button that says Jail break and its done.
Here is the link to DL spirit http://spiritjb.com/

Yeah that's what I was going to use because it's the only untethered jailreak I could find for 3G I-Pods

Pro switcher - multitasking palm style

Installous - every app for free

Those are my top two
