Thanks Andy. It will be nice to know more options! My oldr )3rd gen) 40 gig iPod does store audio as files - just fine in fact, but if the newer ones cannot be used as a drive what good are they? Oops, I meant you can most likely copy audio files to it as a storage and transport medium, I just gave files to someone last week that way. I used to use the iPod as a recordng drive with my iBook but it heats up and destroys the battery. ..
