iPodRip
Ok, backing up isn’t something we all love to do. I try to make a backup every now and then, and always pay much care to my music collection, since there’s a lot of hard work in there… But there are loads of people who don’t, buy a new computer, throw away the old one, attach their iPod and then come to the conclution it isn’t possible to get your music back from your iPod. Well, for all those out there, there is a sweet solution called iPodRip. This nifty App allows you to attach your iPod, and send its music back into your computers’ iTunes.
This is also a great solution for those of you who love to share music… (Although it’s not allowed, but hey… I’m not crazy ;) )
Enjoy!
Connect 360
Got XBOX 360? Let’s connect!
As a former PC user I really loved the xbox feature to stream my PCs music to my XBOX. Later when I finally ditched my PC I really missed streaming my music to my console, so after a short google session I found this awesome application that converts your mac into a Windows Media Server with only one click. If you want to setup the same service on your windows PC, make yourself a cup of coffee cancel you upcoming appointments and start doing the “Windows thingy”.
The application is actually a preference pane that starts a media server (probably over SMB) and makes your XBOX believe you have got a aluminum Windows PC with an apple on the side.Â
When you have started connect360 from your mac you can now access your iTunes music, iTunes videos, iPhoto’s pictures and movies from your XBOX 360. Now you can start enjoying all your Mac’s music while you are playing your favorite games or watch your iTunes series on your TV without using a video adapter or tv.
The application is only $20,- and is developed by www.nullriver.com (yes, the same guys that made the iPhone installer app)
A public demo is available.
Got PS3 ??? check out MediaLink –> Awaiting review, who’s got a PSP?
