I know that I got a free iPod from one of these types of websites, but I worked around their "limitations". It's definitely true, just be sure to have a disposable email address, and what-not. The hardest part is getting the other 5 people to agree to something. I used audible.com, because it let you cancel the membership, plus you got two free books. It just takes some work to do, and I'm not sure if it's worth the effort. Just save up and get one is what I say. And buy a cover or something for the iPod, they scratch super easy!
