amarok and ipods?

[Brad Harrison]

Hey Matt, the newer versions of amarok work pretty flawlessly with ipods.

I did at one time have a problem with the shuffle as the software is
slightly different.  As of late things look on the up and up tho.  Amarok
would probably be my first choice also...

Later

Brad
