I've been trying to figure out a good way to do this, as PocketPCs aren't supported. It's been quite a battle.

They all suggest I burn the songs to CD, then import those to WM, where I can transfer them to my PocketPC. It's a real pain; I have to believe that there's an easier way to go.

I have also discovered that my PocketPC MUST be connected via USB for WM to "see" it -- A step back from my Bluetooth connection (which I've been using).

Does anyone have any words of wisdom? Any download services that are more PPC friendly?

Thanks!

I haven't an answer for actually downloading the files directly onto the iPAQ but the way I do it is to have a shared folder on my main PC. All my MP3's are stored in there. Using Resco Explorer I have mapped the drive onto my iPAQ so I now have wireless access to all the files on the main PC. They show up as a local drive on the PPC. I can also move them onto the iPAQ using file explorer if needed.

I agree with the shared folder idea, but does that work with license dependent files like the ones from the online download sites?

I've no idea sorry, I only use MP3's
