1.0 out of 5 stars NOT WORTH THE MONEY!, April 30, 2009

If you are like me and looking for something that will do like a computer, but skip messing with the computer - this item is not the one. It down loads fast, but your album info shows Unknown Artist, then "iRecord,(the)date(recorded),(then the)time". If you click on that info the album starts playing - NO song list at all. If you don't have a record of what album was loaded at what time you will never know what you are playing. If you are looking for a specific song it will be very time consumning to find it! I looked for more info on how this iRecord worked and what it actually did before I bought and could not find anything on it and took a chance knowing it might not be what I wanted. So I am just writing off the cost but please beware of how little it does! It's going to be a garage sale item now!

I had seen this advertised in a SkyMall magazine on a flight and got really excited about it. So I bought it from eBay.
I wanted to use it to record episodes of TV shows I owned onto my ipod.
Well... First, to start recording you have to time it just right so that when you hit the record button, there is a lag of about 4-5 seconds.
Second, you might not be able to watch and record simultaneously with the supplied cords, which makes recording total guesswork.
Third, this device does not list any information about the recording, simply: "iRecord, (date recorded),(the time)". So you'll never know what you are watching or listening to prior to choosing it.
But thats not the worst...
THE AUDIO is completely unusable with this device. An episode of say, Star Trek TNG, spiked uncontrollably the entire time. I made multiple attempts of different episodes, and the same issue persisted.
I guess if you don't care about the integrity of the audio, it's nice to simply record a show or DVD/Blu-Ray onto your ipod, but I'm sure there are better, less expensive ways to do it. Even iTunes would be cheaper!!
