gtkpod
gtkpod is a Graphical
User Interface (GUI) for Apple's iPod. It supports
the first to fifth iPod generations including the iPod mini, iPod
Photo, iPod Shuffle, iPod nano, and iPod Video.
It allows you to import your existing iTunes database, add
songs, podcasts, videos and cover art, and to edit ID3 tags.
The latest version has added a raft of new features including:
preliminary support gapless playback for MP3
files, multi-threaded on-the fly conversion of WAV, FLAC and OGG files
to formats the iPod understands,
background-copying of tracks to the iPod, display of album art, and the
downloading of album art.
