I know there is WinAmp, but it doesn't rip to .mp3's, instead it rips to it's own proprietary format (at least the free version does. I'm not paying for the full version, or at least for now I'm not)
is there any other Media player program that will sync and iPod and Rip to .mp3's without installing a bunch of Quicktimeware onto your computer?

EDIT: Yeah, it has been ripping CDs to mp3 files.

Thanks.

Or Zune? I doubt Zune's capability to transfer to an iPod but I'd give it a shot anyway. The software for it is free anyway.
I gave up using apple a long time ago.  Not a cheap move but I'm happy with .mp3 files and and 120GB of music.

But I can't find anything better than iTunes, so I'll stick with that for now.

anapod explorer for managing files on ipods. Quote:

i know this is about music, but the only video player i have found that is better than vlc is the one bundled with nero. i have come across a few (less than ten) files that wont work on vlc, but will on the nero player. |
