trash the ipod and get a sandisk mp3 player. i have one and love it! it needs no special software. i just drag and drop my files right onto it. i pity anyone that doesn't have one. it's literally that simple. sorry i can't help you more than that. PS what was this good cd you bought? and why are you buying a cd when you have an mp3 player? i no longer pay for music, ever.

I probly shoulda. Well, It's 100 bucks so I don't wanna just throw it away. It works great for everything except this. :cursin: The cd is Casting Crowns - Life Song (it's "God" music :bonk: But I'm a God lovin kinda cat).

A lot of the new CDs have a little exe file on them that you can run. That will give you an interface that will allow you to rip the songs onto your computer (most likely in wma format). Once you have them in that format, there are several ways to get them into mp3 format, if that's what you want. I do have an iPod, but I hate iTunes, so I'm not familiar with what audio formats it will support.

Nevermind. I just figured it out. I'm just a moron. And I'm a computer tech for a living! I'm getting fired. :( Anyway, check out the song "Praise you in this storm" on that album. It's an awesome song!

I had "Error checking" clicked in the settings. For some reason that was casuing the problem. Unchecking that fixed it.

I just bought 3 killer metal CD's. If your down with metal check them out. Children of Bodom - Are you dead yet? In Flames - Come clarity As I Lay Dying - shadows are security.
