I used Anapod Explorer in the past for that sort of functionality, then decided that iTunes works pretty well and I didn't want to divorce my iPod from it just to be able to add/remove songs via window's drag and drop.
But if you want to use the iPod "like a big memory stick", it already does that... you can use it like a portable drive, but that's a feature in addition to the music storage/playback.
Also, if you're looking to just gank all the songs off your iPod, it can be done w/o any special software. The files just have to be re-imported back into iTunes. I had to do that to recover my music after my PC's HDD corrupted and I wanted to get everything off the iPod and back onto the PC.
