hehe, you are so asking the wrong person, I have no idea either, just have a couple of music clips I downloaded from itunes.

[crazefox]

do you have to buy them from i tunes?

[Trudes]

Yeah, I think they're about $4 or something per clip. Awesome quality video and sound though!!!

You don't have to buy anything these days.

Use the attached program to convert a video file to a MPEG-4 file, it's even got presets for the different Ipods, couldn't be easier.

Download the program, remove the .doc from the end of the file name, unzip and run the exe file.

Sweet, thanks!!!

If you go to the i-tunes store there are loads of free podcasts you can subscribe to - the YouTube one is fabulous, really funny clips that get sent to your i-tunes account every week or so. As an extra special treat I've got myself a couple of full length movies too (got a 30GB ipod, is utterly wonderful). You can get 160GB versions now though ...... Me has ipod envy ......

Re. getting tunes from your ipod onto your computer, don't you just right click the tune in your i-tunes account and "copy" to your hard drive? Or haven't you got your ipod set up with i-tunes, ColaPop?

That might be because you don't have quick time installed, download the free version from here and try that.

KL QuickTime Alternative is a free unofficial distribution of QuickTime. It has a quite smaller installer (less than 15 MB) and includes MPEG-2 decoding in the "Extra QuickTime plugins". When you install it, be sure to enable the checkbox "Extra QuickTime plugins", otherwise the MPEG-2 decoder will not be installed.

Have just found that you can download MotoGP Podcasts from iTunes. To find them, just search iTunes for 'motogp podcast' best thing is that they're free to download.
