Comments on: Low-tech 'hack' takes fizz out of Pepsi-iTunes promo

It doesn't take a code breaker or a math whiz to lift songs from Apple Computer's iTunes online music store--it just takes a good pair of eyes and a trip to the soda aisle.

The article isn't *quite* accurate in stating that you can only transfer songs to an iPod from iTunes. iTunes also allows you to burn selected tracks or playlists to audio CD-Rs, so technically you can play back your iTunes songs on any CD player. Also, you can, if you're so inclined, re-rip the songs from the audio CD into any digital format you have the software for, so you could, for example, rip them to WMA format and play them on any digital music player that supports WMA. Though that's a bit of a hassle. :-)

iTunes only compatible with iPod?
by February 1, 2005 11:06 PM PST
I beg to differ, many, if not most not company exclusive MP3
players (eg: sony is company exclusive and their mp3 players
probably only work with sony software) DO work with itunes,
and for the most part behave the same way and iPod does.
Playlists may not work, but song transferring and viewing works
just fine.
