What does any of this have to do with Sony?

I know Sony is hated, but...

are Ipods not made by sony?


and thank you for answering my question..

Apple. Not Sony.

Oh....sry my mistake


Is it possible they censor unlicensed music that goes into their pods?

haha, no problem


Anyway, I've never actually tried using anything but iTunes to load my music on the iPod, but as far as I know, you can just drag and drop them into the appropriate folder.

I know there are ways around that, but I'm using a Mac so its just easier to use iTunes.


and no, they don't censor unlicensed music. They just prefer you to use iTunes as that is their site to buy legal music. You can use iTunes for unlicensed music. It's just a way for Apple to try and make as much money as possible. If you are forced to use iTunes to upload your songs, they are hopping that you may purchase a song or two for convenience.

iPods do not have the Sony DRM.

Burn the Sony bought songs to CD and then import it using iTunes.

I actually did import one of my folders into the itune store "thingy"
and it plays on the itune great player
but it won't load onto the Ipod....







P.S No name CD .....

this is how i import songs into my ipod


1. open up winamp, create playlist

2. save playlist.m3u

3. open up itunes

4. import playlist.m3u

5. drag your newly imported playlist up into the ipod icon

When you plugged in your iPod to your computer, did it pop up a screen to register the new iPod?

Your best best is to reformat the iPod, and when you connect the iPod to your computer, iTunes will automatically open and it'll ask you to register the iPod and will import your songs.

That is not the point!!!

Why can't I just transfer my songes to the IPOD straight from my drive????

Because that's the way they have always been.

They want you to use their own proprietary software so you will buy legal music from them so that they can make even more money...

pod blows chunksGOD DAMN ..WHY didnt any1 tell me ipod blows chunks..

Any product that is Sony uses Memory Stick...

such as Digital Camera, Camcorder, TV, Laptop, MP3 Player, PSP etc.



All i'm trying to say is, Sony is the only company that is trying to push their own media formats. You don't see Samsung, or JVC or Panasonic trying to push their own media.

That's why Sony is hated...

on top of that, some of their early mp3 players forced you to convert to their garbage ATRAC format, while apple allowed use of any formats
