Yes, syncing playlists is not a bad idea. I do it myself, although that's mostly because I have way too much stuff to fit on an ipod. I'm curious about what you said about it takin…

About 2300 songs taking 10-15 minutes or so to copy. So it doesn't take "forever", but longer than I'd like to wait. I might do it though, I dunno. I just hate to lose the video…

The reason photos take a while is that they have to be converted before transfer. 10-15 minutes probably isn't an unreasonably long time for that number of songs, though. How many…

About 15 gigs of music, took me 10-15 minutes...I didn't keep track though.

Is there anyway I can delete video from my computer, but still be able to sync it to my iPod without leaving the video?

I don't think so. You can't transfer it from your computer to your iPod if it isn't still on your computer. If you have it on your iPod, delete it from your computer then try syn…

It's a Panasonic model apparently http://ipodhub.net/articles/20060511bluray_macs.html

Whatever you do, don't ask whether the Mac Pro is going to have Blu-Ray.

If there is not an official thread on this question, here it is. I am trying to decide whether or not to save my pennies for August, or if I will have to wait until 2nd generation…

For some reason I'm getting this vision... The signal is very strong...

Of course. It's also going to have SHARKS... with LASERS!

I also understand that the MacPro with have Snake on a Plane. In all seriousness though, I doubt the debut of the Mac Pro is going to have blu-ray. Blu-ray just BARELY hit the ma…

Very doubtful it will have blu-ray. The write speeds of BD is down right crappy at the moment. Perhaps we will be surprised, but at this moment in time, I don't think BD is ready f…

I wouldn't at all be surprised if it had Blu-ray, but if it did, it'd be an add-on option... for $$$$. P.S. harrisjamieh, DVD Studio Pro already supports HD-DVD.

Perhaps Apple will also release some decent BluRay authoring tools... the only one available currently, from Sony, only supports MPEG2.

Decent analysis. Can't say I disagree. But, wasn't the iMac the first machine to provide an affordable consumer level DVD burner to the masses? I'm looking at Apple to set the…

My prediction: Apple is late to the video download service. I predict they are just waiting to drop a bomb when all the pieces are in place: Mac Pro with functional and affordab…
