Hi Caitlyn - Thanks for the idea, I'll look in to it tomorrow. The actual album is already on the iPod, I downloaded it directly from the iTunes store, so will have to hook up the pod to the Windows machine, and sync it to get the album in to the library on that machine, and then try and grab it from the iTunes folder and like you say, put it on a memory stick, and transfer it to the media folder on this Mac. You'd think that should work, seems a good idea, I'm just not so sure it will, but will report back as I know iTuens is a thorny issue for many, and we need all the tips and tricks we can have with that app -
