I just purchased an iPod and while I have been using other MP3 players for about 7 years I just got an iPod.
I record the Opie & Anthony show and these shows sometimes go on for an hour to an hour and a half. I was having trouble with the iPod cuz my other mp3 player bookmarked EVERYTHING played. The iPod was only bookmarking audio books.
So, after some digging, I found that if you RIGHT click the file in iTunes, and choose GET INFO and then choose the 'options' tab (sometimes it defaults to it sometimes it does not) there is a check box for 'Remember playback position'
WOW - what a life saver - I was getting so aggravated. So, now, where my other MP3 player used to reset the bookmark after you bookmarked another song, the iPod will bookmark ALL tracks that are checked with this option and thats nice
Not sure if this is new news to anyone, it bothered me so much that I am just happy to find it and, well, I wanted to SHARE
Have a happy new year!!!
