Stack them very carefully and don't wobble to much when you walk!
Hope this helps~

I use ImTOO MPEG Encoder. It's got built in settings for IPOD, makes it really easy as the IPOD is pretty picky about what it will and will not play.
Do you know if that works with the iphone?

I use cucusoft software. Basically makes an mpg4 so the ipod can play it.
Works well for me.

No idea. I don't own an iphone. I would guess yes, since Apple products tend to be very consistent.
Actually, it appears they make a specific piece of software.

Log onto your FREE iTunes account library at Apple.com.
Put your CD in your computers drive.
The prompt will come up on a window asking what you want to do:
Select "upload to your iTunes account music library": You can upload any CD, bootleg, purchased or not. All free.
Then it will automatically upload to your itunes library, and you can delete the tunes you may not want uploaded.
If you then want to download music to your iPod:
Then when the upload is complete, connect your ipod to your isb port, and iTunes will automatically download them into your iPod. FREE.
You may get a few bubbles asking what you wish it to do,, just direct it to all go automagically.
We have 4 iPods in this home and it works for us.

... As long as it's not a protected AAC file from somebody elses IPOD.
Any way around this?

He's asking about putting DVD movies into an IPOD.
To put music into your IPOD, you can simply open itunes (you don't have to have your ipod plugged into your computer) and drag and drop any compatible files from anywhere on your computer, zip drive, flash drive, memory stick, etc onto your iTunes "Library" file. As long as it's not a protected AAC file from somebody elses IPOD.
OHH, I stand corrected!!

No good way I have found. I've seen some programs say they do it, but there's so many provisions (won't work with music purchased with iTunes v 5.3-6.5, for example), that it doesn't seem worth the hassle. Plus, converting one lossy format to another lossy format is definitely not the way to go.
Thanks.

The way I've heard to rip the AAC from the MP3 file is to burn it to an audio CD in audio CD format, then rip the audio CD back to MP3. Of course you have to have the rights to the protected AAC file first. If you use a Virtual CD drive you wont have a stack of audio CDs that you'll never play lying around. :idea:

If you have the "rights", you can just right click>convert to mp3 from iTunes. It's pretty simple. :D
Yeah but can you share the file after I tunes converts it or is the AAC protection still attached?
I don't know about I Pods or Apple anything , I don't do Fruit :p
