Easily Copy Music from your Ipod to Your Computer

by Gilberto J Perera View Comments Share

My girlfriends laptop crashed the other day and with it all of her music disappeared. The good thing is that she had all of her music saved on her Ipod, the bad thing is that Itunes does not let you copy the music from an Ipod onto a computer (it kinda goes against the buying music model). Itunes allows you to copy music to the Ipod not from the Ipod. So I did a few searches on Google and ran into this little Winamp plugin, mlIpod. mlIpod allows you not only to manage your music, but also copy music from your device. All you do is install Winamp on your computer, download and install mlIpod Support, after a few clicks you can get music from any Ipod device to your computer. When installing make sure to read the Read Me file regarding Winamp 5.22. If you need any help using the software let me know.

"ml_ipod is a Winamp Media Library plugin that allows you to send and get songs off your iPod from Winamp’s Media Library. (To use it with Winamp 5.2 and above, REMOVE the ml_pmp.dll first, they will not work together!)" Description Via Site

mlIpod Support: Download

Winamp Basic 5.22: Download
