According to my boss, he stores all of his music, ripped & purchased - about 20gb worth - on his hard drive on his PC. He then docks his family's four iPods to it to download music to them. Now, unless the music is being transferred instead of just copied to the iPods, should not the music still be in the HD? Craig W.
