Rhythmbox Gets iPod Support

Posted by simoniker on from the plug-it-in dept.

Bhondai writes "The latest release of the popular GNOME based iTunes clone, Rhythmbox has, amongst new features, initial support for the iPod. Things are still a little unpolished at this moment (requiring manual mounting of the iPod to /mnt/ipod), but this does look promising. A list of changes and new features in Rhythmbox 0.7.1 is available at Footnotes."

    Then you are not a developer.

    With your spelling capacity, it probably was because you typed "rm hte box *.mp3" Anyways, your statement is crap, RhythmBox doesn't write to mp3 files, so it can't hose them.

    There's this great new website called Amazon.com, and they actually send you real CD's. Even books!

    Amazing what they can do this day and age.

  5. Ironic Homepage Banner by cyranoVR · · Score: 4, Funny

    It's kind of ironic that their homepage banner shows rhythmbox playing "Bring Me to Life" by Evanesence.

    Seeing as their server is on its way to being Slashdotted, maybe a better choice of Evanesence song would have been "Going Under?"
