Pinoy in Singapore

One of the limitations I find frustrating with the iPod and the iTunes is that it’s not very straightforward – especially when it comes to tinkering with your podcasts.  The iPod is very dependent on the iTunes that it syncs to.  For me, the primary use of my iPod is really to listen to podcasts [...]
