BlackBerry Media Sync Released, iTunes and RIM Now 2Getha 4Eva
Posted by Gizmodo US Edition at 9:35 AM on July 24, 2008
With a large enough expansion cards BlackBerries have always been decent media players, but transferring tunes is sort of a pain in the arse. Released today, Media Sync solves this problem, interfacing with your iTunes music collection to automatically transfer selected music and playlists to your BlackBerry. It is currently only available for Windows and doesn't support video or DRMed tracks, but hey, it's a start. [BlackBerry via CrackBerry]

@funkytooth: My boss wants to replace his Toshiba Satellite with a Macbook, but the only reason he hasn't is because Verizon's connection software and RIM's desktop management software don't work with Mac OS. RIM could change this, but Verizon is another matter.

Windows only... that is my problem with my Blackberry now. If RIM wants to jump on the itunes bandwagon, at least support the Mac OS.

As long as it can play podcasts and my own MP3s... my next phone will be a Blackberry!
I don't have a huge music collection anyway, but it would be nice to have a bunch of songs on my phone that I carry everywhere.
Sorry 2nd gen iPod Nano...

The lack of DRM support is a non-issue - I don't support DRM either. DRM is incompatible by design.
