For moment, I was excited to hear about ‘PodShanking,’ the idea and term coined in this article on The Mod Gods (which takes itself pretty seriously, but they’ll get learn how to hack a girl to give it up soon enough). The whole shtick is that they are doing iPod-to-iPod direct transfers, except they are really just using voice recorders with line-in to make low(er)-fi versions of analog audio, which means the picture they made showing a single 1/8th-inch plug is fairly disingenuous. Anyway, I have no point, really, except I’d like for someone to finally explain to me why it’s been 3 years and nobody has hacked together a way to do a direct transfer of digital files via the bottom port with a crossover cable. Don’t tell me it’s too hard, just do it. I’ll be over here making a sandwich.
Also, that ‘Joel Johnson’ in the comments isn’t me. I don’t know what the hell he’s talking about.
