A great tool which was really helpful to me. I have about 6500 songs on my iPod, and on a certain moment all songs just disappeared on the iPod: they were all gone in iTunes and when also on the iPod itself it listed: 0 songs. Strange because phisically they were all there (iPod about screen said I used 33 gig and still had 5 available). In Windows Explorer I could see all the directories in the hidden iPod folder (F00 tot F49) with all the MP3 files. However copying these to the harddisk did not copy all my Ratings, Playcounts and Playlists. CopyPod was the only program I found which could see all the files. I was able to restore it directly into iTunes (in mp3 format) and keep all my ratings. Thanks guys!
