Re: iPod logistics...
Strictly speaking, this isn't the right site for this question, I think. Authorization allows you to play tunes from the iTunes store. It has nothing with copying back and forth. The iPod and iTunes allows music syncing in one direction only. If you want to move tunes from the iPod to another computer, the most convenient way is to use a third party program. Go to your favorite download site and search on 'iPod' and look at the offerings. There are free and shareware titles to do what you want.

Authorizing the computer allows you to play your purchased music on it. You can synch any number of iPods to a computer, but each iPod only synchs with a single computer at a time. That said, if you want to copy music from one computer to another, you can do it, but you have to designate part of the iPod disk as a disk drive, and copy them music files to that partition, then onto the other computer. If the ITMS music you copy is authorized on both computers, then it'll play. Is this an example DRM working the way it should (restricting my fair use right :) or am I missing something? Well the choice is dealing with Apple's (minimally) problematic DRM or not having the devices at all, because the RIAA would sue them out of existence. There are numerous programs out there to do what you want. -- Bruce Johnson This is the sig that says 'NI!' -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

I might get around to moving the things off; it isn't a major concern, but there are a few softwares to help. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing some iTunes setting on my powerbook!
