found this on google, any ipod owner tried it?
-apple cripples recording on an ipod so belkin and griffin then have to sell us add-on devices for over $50 that can
only record at 8khz, which is all pretty shitty. apparently (the rumor is) apple does this so people don’t use their
ipods to record stuff they think we shouldn’t, like concerts, whatever.
but don’t worry, there’s a way around it and you can record at high quality, all for free.
1. Install Podzilla on your iPod (not all models are
supported).
2. Boot in to Linux on your iPod.
3. Go to Extras > Recordings, choose 8,32,44.1,88.2 or 96kHz the higher, the better quality.
4. Record via Line In a microphone or even use your headphones.
5. Boot back in to the normal iPod OS plug in to the doc, grab your files from the iPod in the “Recordings”
folder.
i suspect the next version of the ipod won’t allow booting in to linux and/or this type of recording. enjoy it while
you can.
with all the podcasting people out there apple should consider not crippling our ipods so we can all use ipods to
record, apple could do this now with a simple software update… or i guess i can keep booting in to linux and never
update this ipod or just buy a cheap recorder, bah.
