Thanks Ben for your input. But when you say "copy them over to Vista PC," my question is, Copy what? When I mount iPod on Linux laptop, I see a complex directory structure under /media/ipod. Do I copy the Music folder? Do I copy the iTunes folder? What are the downstream consequences of copying just the Music folder and *not* the iTunes folder? I could file copy everything under /media/ipod, move it to Vista, but will it be in a form that iTunes will recognize? Maybe the procedure looks like: 1) Export songs using gtkpod on Linux, 2) Import songs using iTunes on Vista. Not sure.

In the worst case, once you have the 350 songs off the Ipod, you could just copy them over to the vista pc and then itunes on the vista pc will take care of the rest... -Ben Childs _______________________________________________ Wlug mailing list Wlug@mail.wlug.org http://mail.wlug.org/mailman/listinfo/wlug
