We all saw this coming. We hoped it would not, but its here. Total Windows and Mac anarchy. At the beginning, you could not play iTunes songs on the Xbox 360. Now, its a total lockout. According to many people and this recent Neogaf forums post, the third generation, or 3G iPod Nano, and iPod touch along with the iPhone, apparently do not sync with the Xbox 360 and are unable to play the music stored on them. They are detected, but are otherwise useless. My question to the readers, is to confirm or deny this report. I have an original Nano and it works fine on the machine. It seems that only the new products are compatible and only the MS mp3 players will work. Anyone who has the new Apple stuff, let us know!

Write a Comment»I too would love to find this out. One of the things on my Junk-I-Need-to-Buy/Replace list is a portable music player, so this might help me decide on which to buy.
@Chris - Did you hear that the new 80GB zune is $129 off of amazon :). Maybe that will help your decision.
I use a 1st gen nano here, and it works fine.
That will indeed affect my decision.
The Zune didnt even cross my mind til u said that.
Whoops. You can get the 30GB last generation off of amazon for $130. Sorry about that, the new 80GB one is still $250
