Anyone ever bootleg a show with an Ipod?

I just got a 20GB Ipod and was looking at this recording accessory plug in thing. It says its for voice recordings, interviews, etc. So I don't really think it would work to well at a show, but you never know.

Or does anyone know of an attaching accessory for an Ipod that is capable of bootlegging a show that would create semi-decent sound quality?

Thanks

i know you need a good mic and setup. if it's some halfass upgrade thing, i say it's not worth it. 311unity.com has some stuff up there on how to record, better to do it well if you're gonna do it at all.

My friend actually recorded a local band's show and it came out alright.

EDIT - Like greenmonkey said, no use in recording a 311 show on it...since the bootlegging team will have a lossless quality available anyway. But if its like...a lesser-known band that doesnt have a strong bootlegging community yet...its worth it to start.

I figured it would probably turn out pretty shitty at a 311 show since its so big and the crowd is so noisy. So, I think I'll save my money

Hmmmm, that sounds good. I'll have my bro check it out since he is more up on his technology. Thanks!

4 - Recording on these models has had initial testing, but there is no code in CVS yet.

tho i did load it onto my 4G, wow this is amazing. it's so cool to see people still working on opensource material. unfortunately it won't support recording yet, but i tell ya, with the eas of recording with this thing i'll deff be going this route as soon as it's available. This will also clear up any ' i cant afford bootlegging' excuses for those who own iPods
