Morpheus Basic 5.5
License: Free (Adware)
OS: Win 98/ME/2000/XP/2003
Size: 186 KB
DOWNLOADS LINK ------------- http://morpheus.en.softonic.com/
Morpheus is one of those age old P2P applications and, with support for Gnutella, eDonkey, Bittorrent and many others, probably the most versatile you can find on the market. The new version aims to turn the P2P client into the ultimate multimedia application. Does it succeed?
Morpheus has gone through a complete facelift and the new version brings a newer interface. The window is divided into 4 tabs: search results, my files, podcasts and Morpheus online, giving you an idea of what it considers important. A pane on the left side allows you to create playlists or keep track of searches and videos – although strangely not music. Morpheus lets you also sync all your downloaded files to import them automatically to iTunes. Oddly enough, the chat tool is now hidden at the top of the interface, next to help and preferences.
Morpheus wants to appear as a multifaceted app, not just a simple P2P program. It includes an embedded browser, Morpheus Online, from which you can check-out the internet or find new files to share while you're downloading. This is particularly useful when you're looking for new podcasts. By clicking on the podcast page button in the podcasts tab, you will be taken to Morpheus' own podcast library. While it's not as star studded as the iTunes library, it's full of varied and original content. The podcast tab is wisely divided into podcast and episodes, so you can browse through what you've downloaded. However we were quite confused by the whole podcast downloading procedure. The progress bar is hidden in the file window of the My Files tab. Why didn't Morpheus leave this in the podcast section?
Morpheus has also beefed-up its security. You can now select your antivirus application to automatically scan downloaded files. The program also includes solid parental control so you can enter hazardous terms into the block list to avoid your kids searching for violent or pornographic material. You can also add a password to make sure you control who has access to Morpheus. The application also introduces UDP technology to improve the performance of downloads and allow secure file sharing between 2 firewall protected PCs.
This new version comes with many interesting enhancements, but not enough to get us overexcited. Add to that the many drawbacks we found in the application. The interface for example is way too clunky, and it's safe to say that lies in the two large ads at the top and the bottom of the program (which disappear if you buy the Pro version). The "My Files" tab has an additional file window at the bottom, which adds to the confusion in the interface. The one click burning function is something we were eager to try out but was nowhere to be seen.
However hard Morpheus tries at integrating cool features like web browsing or podcasting, we figure the application should only be used for what it's good at i.e.P2P downloading. The program gives access to all the P2P networks, even Bittorrent, and the new version introduces safer and quicker transfer thanks to UDP technology. The other extra features in the application like the library structure or web browser felt a bit awkward, and therefore failed at turning the program into a true multimedia application. Let's hope Morpheus gets it right in the future.

iPod DOWNLOADS
iTunes 7.5
-----DOWNLOAD http://itunes.en.softonic.com/
Mac users are often said to be the most loyal customers in the computer market, but that's because they have very good reasons, such as iTunes, to stick to Apple products. And if I were in your shoes, I wouldn't miss the opportunity to have this application on my Windows PC.
iTunes has become one of the most popular music managers available today. When you run it for the first time, you can choose your music folders or let the program take care of everything. Then you can keep on adding new music, videos, podcasts and other multimedia elements from various sources and – of course - synchronize all this content with your iPod or iPhone thanks to a perfectly seamless integration.
Managing your iTunes library is a piece of cake. The program's interface is simple and straightforward, plus there are right-click shortcuts and keyboard hotkeys for many tasks. You can view extended information about each track and edit their tags, give them a score with the iTunes star ranking tool and comfortably browse through your collection with the amazing Cover Flow system. And for those of you who work in a LAN environment, the great news is that you can share your music libraries with your network mates.
One thing I particularly like of iTunes as music manager is its ability to create playlists. The Smart Playlist tool enables you to create almost any kind of playlist based on just about any criteria you set: artist, genre, date added, star ranking or even the number of times you've played each song. Another great playlist is the so called Party Shuffle, which comes in very handy when you invite some friends over to your place. You can then leave iTunes working as a DJ and play music on its own, but if you drop by the PC at any time, you can freely add more songs to the list or rearrange them in any way.
However, if there's something where iTunes is not perfect yet, that's the player function. You may disagree here, but I think the iTunes player falls too short, especially when compared to its music manager side. It does have some interesting features, like the Smart shuffle function and crossfading playback, but I still find it too simple. The visual effects in the Viewer window are particularly poor. I also missed the ability to control the player from anywhere with global hotkeys, which is great if you listen to music while you're working on the PC with other apps. Fortunately there are some plug-ins that cover this need.
In all, despite these slight flaws, iTunes is probably the best choice to manage your music collection –and that includes Windows users.

Tuning in to your iPod
You know how females and males are totally different? I believe it was a male who coined the adage “a picture speaks a thousand words”, and here is an opportunity to prove that saying worthy. The iPod has made its way into the collective consciousness of the developed world being the definitive portable media player, and even its controls have been tacked onto article clothing. With summer already here, what better way than to enjoy your favorite chill out tunes by the beach, sipping on a pina colada while having the hunks drool at your tanned body in a skimpy bikini? That’s all the product description you’ll ever need for the bikini, head on after the jump for the female version.
For males who want to get some iPod action discreetly despite being all dressed up in a suit, there is always the classic black pinstripe from Marks & Spencer which boasts a ’smart fabric’ control pad that has been carefully sewn onto the left lapel, letting the owner adjust the volume level according to his desire. The control pad is hooked to a cable that discreetly runs underneath the lining and plugs into the iPod itself which is tucked away safely into its own pocket. Heck, the lapels also come with loops that keep those pesky headphone wires in place to keep you tangle-free. The entire iPod suit will retail for £149 and can only be dry-cleaned for obvious purposes.
I suppose all male apparel that feature iPod support runs along the same lines. While the idea of an iPod bikini is very tempting (as evident by the picture on the right), when you think of the male equivalent, it is more of a turn off than anything else. After all, seeing one bulge is more than enough – two is just overkill.

iTunes, sharing, and the thank you note
I remain on the road and therefore have to find ways to amuse myself in the off-hours. One of my favorite ways to do so is to eavesdrop on other people’s iTunes libraries.
What some people fail to realize is that when they are connected to a public (or, in my current case, semi-public) network — like the one in my hotel, for example — iTunes sharing works just as it does on your home or office network. If you have iTunes up and running and sharing switched on, others can see your iTunes library and enjoy its contents.
But there’s this:
What do you suppose happens when someone on that network attempts to play a hunk of media you’ve purchased from the iTunes Store? Right, they’re presented with the Authorize Computer dialog box. And in this dialog box is your Apple ID — you know, the one that’s often your .Mac email address.
OK, so someone’s got your .Mac email address. What’s the big deal?
You ever notice that iDisk command in the Finder’s Go menu on a Mac? When you select that command, one of the options that appears in the submenu is Other User’s Public Folder. Seems to me that if someone wasn’t careful about what they put in their Public folder, embarrassment might ensue when perfect strangers poked around. And even if the contents of that Public folder were as pure as the driven snow, how difficult would it be for a prankish individual to drop something the tiniest bit alarming into it?
Me? If I like what I’ve heard in my victim’s iTunes Library I often take the opportunity to write a little thank you note in TextEdit and fling it into that self-same Public Folder. But then, I'm a reasonably nice guy.

Congressman Ron Paul on Tucker Carlson Show 6-14-07
Transferring music from your iPod to your computer is easy to do if you have the tools. Unfortunately, the iPod is designed to prevent us from sharing our music. Which is understandable, because the music industry is reeling from the technology which allows us to copy music CDs, and reducing their profits.
But the problem is longstanding, ever since the old cassette tape players were used to record music, straight from the radio.
So, what should you do if your computer with all your iTunes goes on the bum, or even worse, just breaks. You're stuck, without any way to transfer your tunes to your new computer.
Until now!
As technology goes, there are always folks who will find a way to beat the system, and this article will outline 25 options for transferring your tunes from your beloved iPod to your computer. Some are either freeware or shareware and the others of course, come with a nominal price tag.
A couple of the links are actually for transferring photos from your iPod to your computer so I included the link below as an extra. It allows you to transfer tunes and videos between iPods.

Transferring music from your iPod to your computer is easy to do if you have the tools. Unfortunately, the iPod is designed to prevent us from sharing our music. Which is understandable, because the music industry is reeling from the technology which allows us to copy music CDs, and reducing their profits.
But the problem is longstanding, ever since the old cassette tape players were used to record music, straight from the radio.
So, what should you do if your computer with all your iTunes goes on the bum, or even worse, just breaks. You're stuck, without any way to transfer your tunes to your new computer.
Until now!

iPod Music Downloads - Top 3 Key Tips Enabling Positive Experiences
iPod music downloads can be a very positive experience if you know the rules of the game. With the enormous number of "unlimited music downloads" sites on the Internet, you can be overwhelmed or confused as to which one is right for you. I'll outline 3 primary things to consider as a minimum while you make up your mind about them.
Scam Sites
The first and foremost thing to consider is whether the site you're at is just there to take your money. Sad to say, but in the real world, there are a huge number of scam sites on the Internet. In the case of ipod music downloads, you may want to do your homework and thoroughly research a site before you reach for your credit card.
One site in particular is very attractive and shows they offer movies, games, TV shows, almost anything you want. But when you click the "Register" link to sign up, a credit card selection page appears showing a grayed out disclaimer on the bottom. If you left click and drag to highlight the paragraph you'll find out they DO NOT host iPod downloads of any sort! In fact they're only selling you, for $37, a list of other sites that DO offer a download service.
The disclaimer reads as follows,
"Disclaimer: This website is a database (ie: an index) to other websites that host downloads. This website does not facilitate in the download process in any way. This website is not affiliated with, nor has control over any of the websites it links to ..."
It seems to me you can get what they have to offer for free using a Google or Yahoo! search for iPod music downloads like I did. So it's best to thoroughly research the site you're interested in before you spend your money. A Google search with the site's name and the word scam would be a good place to start.
Quantity of Music/Video Files
The top download sites have millions of multi-media files; movies, videos, games, songs. The ones I use claim to have access to about 100 million files. Be certain to look on each site for the number of download files available in their database. You can also search the related iPod or music download forums for info on the site. If others are satisfied with their service, chances you will be too.
My account with one of the sites requires you to download a free utility which will search for songs based on the title or the artist's name. The search results sometimes include several hundred results. Naturally a number of the results are the same song, but there is a star rating system indicating the quality of each file. The majority of the files are mp3 format but some are in wma format.
Price
Your options for quality iPod music downloads are numerous. But if the site passed the first two tests above then you should consider the long term cost. Prominent sites like Yahoo and MSN can be very expensive. For instance a Yahoo music account will cost around $70 per year and MSN charges about a dollar per song. So your typical "unlimited music downloads" site is a bargain, since they mostly offer a lifetime membership in the 35 to $50 range.
In Summary
As with anything in life, if it looks too good to be true a lot of times it is. But in this case, the nominal fee for joining one of these unlimited music download services can be well worth it. Because, the real fact is many of them use a P2P file sharing utility similar to the one I was required to download.
The iPod music download services that use it are basically charging you the same price as the utility's owner. So effectively, you're getting their customer service for free. Some of them offer additional free software incentives, game downloads, and movie and video downloads included in the membership fee.
Most of the services I looked at also include free iPod music conversion software. I'm happy with my account and I download several tunes everyday. But I did my homework and researched the sites for authenticity, file quantity, customer satisfaction and price before I spent my money.
