We spend so much time talking about getting stuff onto your iPhone that the obverse has kind of fallen by the wayside. And yet the most popular question about iPods has long been “how do I get my music off of an iPod without using iTunes?” And among the answers to that question has been Sci-Fi Hi-Fi’s PodWorks app.
Well, iPhone users can rest easy, because PodWorks’s developer, Buzz Andersen, has updated the application with iPhone compatibility—it’s now the first transfer app to support everything from the original 5GB iPod to the iPhone. So, you can now move music from your iPhone to your Mac without having to futz with any hacking nonsense. PodWorks runs on 10.3 and above, and will cost you $8, though you can use it for up to 30 days and 250 songs if you care to give it a trial run.
It's not obverse, it's reverse. Sheesh.
