Backup music from IPOD to PC or Mac

I have not tried Ipod Liberator 2.0, but i have tried and used Winamp. The current version of winamp allows you to read your Ipod as a fully accessible drive. Just drag and drop in either direction and presto

Wow, is impressive that one of the oldest free MP3 players in the net can do such service. Did you detect any problems with certain tracks or degradation in anyway?

I purchased PodWorks. Haven't used it much, but it seems to work well, has nice features and is easy to use. Don't have any reason to suspect there would be sound quality issues. PodWorks can export iPod music to new folders by artist or album on your hard drive or directly to your iTunes music folder. I got it mainly because I wanted to update my iTunes music library with metadata, namely star ratings, that I created on the iPod itself.
