1 stars (Freeware will do the same thing -- don't waste your money on this) - The issue at hand is not really being able to copy the files from the ipod to another computer, it is to reconstruct the internal table of contents so that anything else besides the ipod and authorized computer knows what these files are!
There are excellent freeware and shareware programs that can do the same thing! I use CopyPod and love it.
Don't waste your money on this!
1 stars (No thank you) - Get the computer on a network, and transfer music to multiple computers for 0 Dollars and 0 Cents
5 stars (Extremely useful) - I had an old HP with about 15 gigs of music on it that needed to be taken behind the barn and shot and, when I replaced it, I needed to find a way to get all my music to a new machine.
The most common answer I got was to do it manually with a stack of blank CD's, but unfortunately that would have taken several hours, if not several days, in addition to $50+.
However, with this product I was able, within 15 minutes, to get every single song onto my new computer using my iPod, a very welcome relief. The interface is extremely easy to use, and, with a good computer, the program works very quickly and efficiently.
I highly recommend this product to anyone who needs to replace a computer with a great deal of music on it (as I did) or anyone who loses all of their music files on their current machine. Though someone commented that there is a great deal of free downloadable software available to do the same task, I personally feel safer with a CD-ROM product, which guarantees that you will be safe from any viruses or other nasty items that could potentially come with downloaded software. |
