God bless computer geeks

Thanks to a group of people devoted to outsmarting Steve Jobs and sticking it to the man, I have been able to transfer nearly 30 GB of music from my iPod (which had music from a friend's computer) onto my new macbook. Thirty gigs of music is like, oh, a billion dollars worth of CDs or iTunes downloads that I can simply not afford to buy (two words: unpaid internship).

And it was incredibly easy. Easy enough that I, one who cannot work any microwave made after 1979, was able to transfer the music with ease. I can now jam to all the Lady Sovereign, Shiny Toy Guns, Joshua Radin, and Frank Sinatra that my little heart desires. I was even able to fill in the gaps in my collections of the Beatles, AC/DC, Dave Matthews, Van Halen, Sean Paul, Regina Spektor, Muse and Ella Fitzgerald (just to name a few).    

My happiness is unimaginable. Thank you Senuti.
