    Is it possible to transfer music/videos from your iPod to your iTunes library, or is it a one-way street?

    You cannot transfer it through iTunes but there is 3rd party software (senuti) as well as just exploring the ipod through windows to find your music.

    not true! iTunes 7 transfers from iPod to PC. I've done it. It asks if you want to transfer files not on ur pc from iPod. Just click yes.

    Deltafx, could you explain exactly how to do that? I know the old drag 'n drop thing doesn't work.

    I'll try out senuti..

    Personally I think iTunes is crappy.. wish they just made it easy like windows explorer drag and drop. I always struggle to copy music to my iPod.

    Personally I disagree, I like the interface and its very easy to use.

    I tried Ephpod and its just another free program thats a piece of crap and always has some feature missing.

    Itunes > Ephpod

    Well, I'll stick with WMP on my XP machines and with iTunes on my mac.
    OF course, you must get Synergy for iTunes (mac only I think). Great plugin for it :)

    The only thing that I think sucks with iTunes, is that if an album isn't found the only option is to manually enter data in. In WMP, I could do a search for the album and choose the album.
