As part of its settlement to the rootkit class-action lawsuit, Sony BMG will apparently offer free album downloads from the iTunes Music Store.

iPodResQ has announced that it has lowered the price of its iPod nano screen repair service by $30.

Beastee is offering a $16 T-shirt featuring the discontinued iPod mini pleading for a second chance. It’s available in the same green, pink and blue of the minis.

There’s no end in sight for unique podcast topics. The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources has developed a 30-minute podcast on ice fishing.

I’m posting this as nothing more than a customer of iPodResQ: If you need ANYTHING done, battery, repair, wghatever, I would heartily recommend them.  They went far and above the call of duty to assist me recently.  I was worried about getting my money’s worth, and I got double the value in product and customer care.

They are good people.

I agree!  iPodResQ fixed my ipod.  Thanks to them my ipod went from “sad” ipod to fully working.  I have grown attached to my ipod but they do the job. Thanks from a local boy!
