thanks for the information. if t the scripting part is already in planning, you can take my post as nice use case. do you have a short list of planned features somewhere? 🙂

anyway, I’ve added this simple hack locally and can work on the “copy music to iPod” part which is harden than I thought, given all those open source /linux iPod tools. first thing I figured out is, that iTunes always writes the iPod DB back to the iPod when the iPod is unmounted by iTunes, or iTunes is closed. Adding songs to the iPod while iTunes is running therefore does not work.

I’ll post a link, when a the first version more or less works.
