XPlay: iPod with Windows

Posted by jamie on from the cats-and-dogs-sleeping-together dept.

meanie writes "Mediafour, a company which specializes in cross-platform software introduced the XPlay software to link up your iPod with Windows. Looks like a solid product, but since I didn't buy an iPod due to lack of a Mac, I haven't been able to check out the software. Anyone try this yet? I might just buy an iPod now."

    You know you want to.. Suggestions for renaming the site: Macdot SlashMac MacSlashy Mac is producing some sexy stuff, but lately slashdot has red more like a Mac product announcement shill than a news for nerds website. It seems like showing geeks a command line # prompt is equivlent to an arabian woman showing a little ankle...

      Why do we suddenly like Apple so much? Simple. MacOS used to be a brain-dead eye-candy OS for idiots. Now, it's the long dreamed-of user-friendly UNIX for the masses!

      Yes, all it took was that command line prompt ;-)

    "Looks like a solid product, but since I didn't buy an iPod due to lack of a Mac, I haven't been able to check out the software."

    But the article says you don't need a Mac to use the iPod now. You should say "I haven't had a chance to try the software out because I don't yet own an iPod."

    It was originally called XPod, but that would have been confusing, so they renamed it XPlay. As long as 'XP' is in there for marketing purposes. Now how should we pronounce it ? X-Play, XP-Lay ? Will it enhance my laying eXPerience ? Maybe if they threw in a wireless vibration function :)
