err, I dont know if this is what your talking about, but if you manually sync your ipod instead of automatically syncing it you can adjust whats on there without having to take the entire library.
Thats useful if you want to put on music from two computers. If you auto sync it, it will take one library and then have to delete it to put on the new library. With this you can add songs without taking off the old library. and if you want to delete certain ones that way, you can too.

yeah, i found this out AFTER i (accidentally) automatically synced my ipod to my laptop that had maybe 4 or 5 new songs.
i had to get my dad to email me all of my music from my desktop at home. THAT WAS FUN.

I use Anapod. Drag and drop in Windows Explorer. Like most normal MP3 players are.

It looks good but I don't want to buy it. How long is the trial for?
No Remo, look how many other people hate it!

You can probably find it on most torrent sites, not that I support such activity.
Myself, it was well worth the 20 bucks for software that made me stop using iTunes.

does the ipod behave the same? cuz my phone updates my mp3s drag and drop... but when i play them on it... they show the file name and not the tag.
DOES THIS DO THAT!?!?!

I haven't noticed yet, but that's one of the things I hate about iTunes.

Mine is vice versa. I love the way I name my files.

Ok, it's official, I love mediamonkey. My organization, and drag and drop. That's all I ask.
