Listening to the iPod

Diana Sachs shot this photo for a TBLC article on Overdrive digital audiobooks, which are Windows-only and encumbered with DRM.

The ironic part is that if I actually wanted to use my iPod to listen to an audiobook from Overdrive, I would have to download and install the Overdrive Media Console and Windows Media Player, load the audiobook into WiMP, burn it to a stack of audio CDs, and import the CDs into iTunes as a series of hour-long monoliths.

It's a nice picture, anyway :)

Overdrive on iPOD

What about burning it as an ISO or to a virtual CD Recorder? No "stacks of CD's" then. And from that point just an import to iPOD.

Just curious
