I Don't hate my iPod Touch anymore!

Why? Because I can now use it with WinAmp!! (via ml_ipod) Before only FW1.x could be used with ml_ipod as Apple did some encryption trickery on the FW2.x iPod Touch/iPhone. It has been broken finally and my unit has been liberated from iTunes!! I'm so happy.

 

I was just using it to read email and surf the web -- now I can finally listen to music on it again. The cover art you see there was loaded via WinAmp.

 

Finally all three of my iPods can live in harmony, sharing playcounts, ratings and my top rated music!

 

I tried iTunes and it was OK -- but it's so inflexible compared to WinAmp. Specifically you cannot sync ratings and playcounts back to your computer from the iPod if you manage your music manually!! I have to do this as my library is about 130gigs -- much bigger than my iPods. If I like a song, I rate it on the iPod and that rating needs to go back to my PC. With iTunes, not possible. With Winamp, works perfectly!
