Getting music off of an ipod.

Can anyone recommend a non-trial format program that can extract music from an ipod? A friend of mine had his hard drive wiped and his ipod now houses all that remains of his music collection.

THE END.

    Look up ephPod. The program isn't pretty, but dammit, it works. (for windows)

    Hey... wait a second. Typically, I'd be pissed as hell that you have my avatar... and I am.

    However, it's an honest question; Mono's information should be good, but if he has MP3s that he actually got from the iTunes store, he should be able to restore them from his iPod (I had a similar problem when the PC I built started smoking and died after about two years or so).

    Sorry, I found this avatar elsewhere at least two years ago. If it offends you that much I can change it.

    He's looking into Mono's suggestion but has yet to get back to me.

    Yes, Windows Explorer. :P

    Make sure view hidden files/protected files is enabled. Then connect the Ipod and double click on the drive letter for the Ipod.

    All the music is there in the folders.. I forget which one off the top off my head, but it will create several sub folders that the music will be indexed across.

    Unless its a Touch. You can't access those as a drive for some reason, so you have to use iTunes or Touch-compatible programs.
