as far as i know you have to use itunes, and that reason alone is why i dont have an ipod

only reason i have one is cause it interfaces with a lot of decks. i personally hate apple products.

I bought software at Taget for $9 that restored my ipod with itunes. It copied the songs from the ipod to the harddrive and then put all of the ipod info (playlists, etc.) into itunes and resync'd.

You can find that type of software online. . .

so after searching for a while last night i realized that apple wont let you email them about technical issues. so i give them a call today. they tell me my ipod is out of warranty and therefor they have to charge me for customer service help!!! WTF kinda jew *** shit is that!?!? i ****ing hate this ghey company. i hope they go bankrupt and all the workers die from meningitis.

but you should try to keep it out the car when you aren't drving. you got to remember its not car audio equipment and isnt designed to handle the heat extremes in a car. and there you go talking all that shit about apple. It does take itunes forever to convert videos for ipod. it took me a couple hours to convert a hour long video on a laptop with 2GB ram and a 1.6 ghz dual core processor. i think they make the windows version slow so you think the high *** mac computers are so much better. you paid 350 for a 30gb you should have waited i brought a 80 GB a week ago for 260 w/tax from wally world

well i bought my 9800BT pretty much the day they were released so i wasnt about to wait a few years.

and apple still does ****. i still hate the ****ing company and will trash talk them till the day i die. but as said before, my cars only that hot when im not driving it. and the only damage that can occur to the ipod when its off is if the metal or plastic melted, and thats def not gonna happen. its exposed to fresh air so it immediatly gets cooled down once i turn on my AC or put down the windows.
