And you can do it today without waiting for 2.4 Desktop Plus.  TiVo is just making it easier for non-savvy users to use their tools.  If you're comfortable converting video today, you can do it now - and have been able to do it for a long time.  Here's a decent resource: <a href="http://www.zatznotfunny.com/gtt.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.zatznotfunny.com/gtt.htm</a><br><br>To answer other questions:<br>- Yes, you can transfer ripped DVDs to a TiVo.  Many people do this.<br>- Converting video to MPEG2 to transfer to the TiVo, then transferring them back to the PC and converting them for an iPod might be possible - but dumb.  It would be harder and slower than just using any number of free tools out there and converting right from whatever format the video is in to MPEG4/H.264 for the iPod.<br>- IIRC, the press release said 2.4 would be out later this year.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[MegaZone]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 16th 2006 8:26AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
