iPod management software for linux?
(lemmy.world)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I started down this path after discovering that iTunes was flagging some of my music that I ripped from my own CDs or my dad's old records (that I now own). It shows on the iPod as "not available in this region" despite purchasing the physical CD from the record store across town!
The iPod is used 99% of the time in my car hooked to the radio, but I'll bring it into the office from time to time. I've been thinking to build something with a raspberry pi and big SD or SSD so that it shows up on my home WiFi when I park and I can syncthing or drag and drop music, but I don't have a lot of time to play. The iPod was a Xmas gift from my dad and (I know it's stupid) but I want to keep using it if I can.
