How can I move music from my iPod to iTunes

[g_hause]

I had been running media monkey to my ipod, but I got an iTransport for Christmas and now want to go higher res on my pod. I converted my flacs to apple lossless using dbpoweramp, installed iTunes and synched everything up. iTunes decided that most of my album art did not exist, retagged some stuff and made a bit of a mess of my iPod, but I digress.

I still have a fair amount of oggs left over from my iRiver/allOfMp3 days. I used MediaMonkey to load them on to my iPod, MM can transcode on the fly. It also retains my album art without question.

The problem is that I have MM on one machine and iTunes on another. I would like to move the music from my pod to itunes because I know iTunes is itching to delete it if I think about synching because it does not know where it came from.

Can anyone suggest a (freeware) utility that can help me out?

I'm a pc.

I just tried to sync a couple podcasts and my whole pod went schizo. I restored the person, iTunes won't sync, cleared library, repointed it, now it is copying something, but I think it is just wiping my drive. Maybe it will sync when it is done deleting all my music.

You can get a plugin for winamp to pull music off your ipod.

I use Yamipod to move files from iPod to iTunes.

Yet another iPod manager - Home

Use Sharepod. Free, simple, and gets the job done. Moves music both ways, does tags too.

Yes, you sure can!
Either by accessing the folder structure in Finder/Explorer, or using a 3rd. party application. iTunes don't allow you to.

We kind of know itunes wont allow it, that was the point of the thread..

foobar's plugin allows this too i believe, i forget its name though, it's on the plugin page i think
