Dumping your entire music collection onto an iPod is a simple, one-click process.
But what about getting your music off an iPod? You'll find that's not so easy. Apple's iTunes software only lets you put the music onto the player, and not the other way around. The iPod/iTunes combo was designed with this restriction built in to prevent piracy and illicit trading. However, there are a number of legitimate reasons you might need to transfer songs from your iPod to your hard drive.

Fortunately, there are many applications you can use to get your tunes off your iPod. Some of them are even free, so they won't cost you a thing.
