iTunes Shared Music. Other People's Music.

[Ginza]

Right. As you can see from the image I seem to have 4 other peoples music streaming on to my computer. I'm in halls at Uni and practically everyone has an iPod and iTunes. Legal it isn't but is there anyway that I can save all their music on to my computer to then put it on my iPod? One guy has some nice new albums that I haven't got round to buying yet...

Is there any way to do this? I've tried doing it through iTunes but as expected it doesn't let me.

Cheers.

Think your only options are to
a) hook your ipod to thier computer and take it that way
or
b) hook thier ipod to your computer and take it that way. (using ipodviewer)

I had this before and it seems you cant take it across a network,only from the source i.e. thier computer.

You could just ask them nicely to share their music on the network, make it hidden so that only people who know their computer name can access it. Then just copy the music across using Windows Explorer.

It's what we do at our college.
