Misu 1.0 is availble
Last week, we mentioned Misu, a nifty little application that allows you to share music between iPods. Basically, you connect two iPods (in disk mode) to a Mac running Leopard and let Misu do its thing, blending their contents across both iPods.At the time it was in private beta (though we had an "in" for TUAW readers). Many of you downloaded Misu and provided feedback to the developers. So much so, in fact, that they were able to issue the 1.0 release in less than a week. Cool!
Head on over and grab your copy. Misu requires Leopard and a single license will cost you $19US.

Holy shit, and there was me thinking TUAW had given the whole day over to ES and her iPhone obsession. Thanks for the break Dave!

Nice, but how about the myriad of free tools to get music back off your iPod? It might be one extra step but I'll save my $19.
Not to mention, you can't boot an iPhone or iPod touch into disk mode.

Misu 1.0 works with the iPhone and iPod Touch :)
Keep in mind Misu lets you transfer music between iPods, not simply just an extractor for recovering your music.

I hear 'disk mode' and I don't think iPhone and iPod touch, sorry. Good to hear, I guess.
How are those two things different? You can still use a utility to get music off an iPod when it isn't a crisis. I 'recover' music from one iPod and put it on another. *Especially* since I have to use a Mac as a middleman anyway.
I'm sure some folks will find utility here. Just not me.

Pretty sure this guy means "available" not "availble"

What about the free license/copy that one was told to get when entering the beta test via TUAW?

I'm pretty sure that was only if you found a bug or suggested something...

I got my free license, but I did provide feedback, not sure if that was a "catch" or not. It works beautifully, you plug in the 1st iPod to copy "From" then plug in the 2nd iPod "recipient" and hit the button, it will only merge the songs not already on the recipient iPod, and it does work with iPhone and iPod touch!! Great Product!!!

Yeah, I did the bug reporting as well and never got a license. Kind of lame!

The app looked awesome, but it wouldn't work on a PPC so I was out of luck...
...I'd even consider buying it... if it would work for me :P

This app just cuts out the "middle app". Instead of copying to HD first, then copy back to a different iPod, this just does it all in one click (merges one with the other), pretty decent actually, works GREAT!! Especially if you have a friend with an iPod and there is music you want to "evaluate" from it. ;-)
