iPods and iTunes blow dead walrus, part II

Can anyone help me find the way around this technology? I want to take some songs off my iPod here at work and give them to somebody else to put on their iPod. The songs are not on anyone's hard drive; they are only on my iPod.

So I hook it up to the computer and of course there is no way to drag the files off my iPod through iTunes. Or is there? And there is no listing of the files on the iPod itself when I actually click on the iPod's icon. So how do I see the actual MP3 files on my iPod, and how do I take a few of them off?

Thanks for the help.

Oh, and did I mention that iPods and iTunes blow?

My son - who is an expert on this stuff - says you're SOL, there's no way it can be done.

and yes I agree that iPods and iTunes blow



and I believe they are the work of the devil, who is Bob Barker....but we won't go there now

You have to copy the original file from your computer, not your iPod, then authorize the new computer to play your music.

You can authorize up to 10 computers to play your music, I think.

Ok, he says that you could put your iTunes on a flash drive, upload it onto your work computer, then you'd have to authorize your work computer to play it and put it on your friend's iPod.

I'm pretty sure that iTunes is a profit deal.
