Here's a patch for bug 370085 - (Music: consider not recommending
gpixpod). I removed the reference to gpixpod and elaborated on current
state or iPod and iPhone support in commonly available music
management packages, ending with a pointer to the community docs,
which offer further instructions about using portable devices.
