On iTunes, if you enter a iTunes gift card to your account, do you still have to enter credit card number?

Reason being, I just got an iPod. I have a computer and so does my dad. I want to buy something off iTunes, but my dad positively does NOT want his credit card number on MY computer. Could I just buy an iTunes gift card, enter it in, and buy it off my computer? Thanks!

No, you don't. I'm pretty sure.

Yes, you can set it up like that - that's how i've done it. It is a bit trickier to set up though because it kept asking me for my credit card details - just google for a tutorial on it.
