MediaMonkey I will be propagating this review all over the net. The people who coded this product should not be allowed near a keyboard or a computer again. I cannot believe that such an inferior product has been given such good reviews. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling MediaMonkey, I rebooted the Ipod numerous times and run diagnostics and error checking on the drive. However MediaMonkey or Itunes will not recognize them. I looked in explorer and and saw that I still had 141 GB of music and what seems to be the playlists. This is the most dangerous time to have something go wrong with the program as will be explained.ĭuring one of these “Not Responding” times the program crashed and when I brought it back up 5000 songs were missing and all my playlists that I painstakingly set up seem to be gone. This theory is further backed by the fact that if you are playing a song on MediaMonkey at this time it actually starts to skip. The only thing I can assume is that at this time the Ipod is being written to and the application is not programmed to multitask. The second problem and probably the most disconcerting was that at these times MediaMonkey when viewed in task manager spent most of the time in “Not Responding” mode. Plus other things running on the machine came to a grinding halt. What I found upon going into task manager was that MediaMonkey was using at the max 154 MB of RAM and 54% CPU usage of a 2.9 GHZ Dual Core machine. Conversely in Itunes I could upload over 100 songs including all track information in the same amount of time. The first problem encountered was when updating “one” album worth of information it took anywhere from 1 to 3 minutes which is very slow. When I found MediaMonkey I was impressed to find that you could update your tags with all the pertinent information from the net like covers, date of recording etc… As you can assume it has taken countless hours to try and get this IPod set up the way I want it. I own a 160GB Ipod Classic with close to 29,000 songs on it. ![]() I was looking for an alternative to Itunes for so many reasons that everyone else out there can name and I came across MediaMonkey and installed it. ![]()
