I'll stick with streaming from my Plex server/Plexamp. However, if you're going to go local just grab a super cheap usb MP3 player and just copy the music to it. No need for iTunes. Simple and quick.

You actually don't need iTunes for syncing an iPod. There are many alternatives that can sync to an iPod now. Only firmware reinstalls require it.
