Digital Home Thoughts: iPod Plug-in for Windows Media Player

"If you ever tried to sync your iPod using Windows Media Player, then you know that the two just won't play together. Unfortunately, the only way to sync your iPod is to use Apple's iTunes software. Till today... That's right, kiss iTunes goodbye and start syncing your iPod with Windows Media Player! Finally, there is a solution that is fully integrated into Windows Media Player. MGTEK dopisp is a plug-in for Windows Media Player that enables you to sync your MP3 music to your iPod directly from within Windows Media Player. There is no external user interface, no fluff, not even a program icon to click on. Just connect your iPod, fire up Windows Media Player, start moving your music to your iPod, and forget that the two once didn't play together."

If Jason's recent post about MediaMonkey supporting direct iPod syncing wasn't quite what you were looking for, how about a plug-in for Windows Media Player to allow you to sync directly from there? I'm assuming, whatever voodoo either product is using to accomplish this, could be shut down by an update from Apple; but then again, if you stop using iTunes, not like you are going to get the update anyway.
