This nifty little contraption is called the PodPod, and it’s a small portable speaker system for all iPods. It needs no batteries (it’s powered from the iPod battery), and costs only £14.99 from ipodworld.co.uk. That website is a legend, they have everything you need for your iPod. It’s great!
I went on download.com to see if i could get any music making software for windows, and i came along a thing called media monkey. This is’nt a music making thing, it is a media player with good recomendations, and it said it supported ipods which i thought was good, so i downloaded it to try. It turned out to be one of the moost horrible media players i have ever used! The songs wern’t organised to show the album and the artist they either showed: the title on it’s own or the album on its own in no particular organisation, what i mean by that is that all the coldplay song wern’t in one big block together like they are in itunes which i found really annoying because i like my songs to be in order all together. Then i looked for the ipod controls and my ipod was plugged in but i couldn’t find them and if they were there it is extremely hard to find them. When you first download it is scans your computor and loads ALL the music that it can find onto it, i ended up having somthing like 19gb at the end of it. I got media mokey from here check it out if you really want to.
I was importing some music into Winamp, that I’d ripped using Windows Media Player, but when I tried to play a song, Internet Explorer (ugh!) popped up with the Microsoft Website on it - ahhhhh!!! This kept on going until 31 windows were open like that telling me about the DRM and how it was going to spoil my day. This is amusing; the computer crashed straight after I had managed to close all the IE windows! I can’t wait until I get linux it will be so much better. Here is a screenshot of all the IE windows at once displaying the WinMedia DRM alert page.
