For her 16th birthday, D#2 received an ipod upgrade. She is thrilled. And I received her ipod castoff – her lime green mini ipod.

I have spent the past six hours (at least!) trying to figure this damn thing out. So far I have

1. accidentally ripped the wire from one set of ear phones
2. fought with Boar over the semantics of playlist vs. folder
3. fought with Boar over the semantics of podcast vs. music.
4. continued fighting with Boar over aforementioned semantics even after a common ground has been established.
5. listened to Garrison Keillor and Brenda Shayne and a reading of the NY Times front page.

this thing is extremely frustrating – any and all advise welcome. Especially if you can explain to me why these knitting podcasts keep going into a music folder. Do you have any great sites I should know about? I am using itunes, but am willing to jump ship at a moment’s notice.
