Find IPod Software and Applications

An advantage that the iPod has over other mp3 players is that the unit itself is basically a small hard drive with internal software, enabling it to perform many functions beyond the realms of playing music and video. In addition to storing files, the iPod can also accept and utilize software designed to enhance and add new features, such as news downloads or weather reports, exercise instructions and recipe books, and driving directions or city tour guides, among other unique applications.
