  Connect your I-pod.
  now click on tools-->>Folder Options-->View-->Show hidden files
  Also there is a checkbox "hide protected system files"-->Uncheck it.
  
  Now open your I-pod.You wil find plenty of hidden folders.
  One of them wil contain your mp3 files.
  
  All the best !

  The mp3 files are stored in 4 lettered folders. I havent figured out the logic of doing this though.

  I agree but the file names will be in encrypted format.Original file name is replaced by four alphabets.
  
  For Ex:
  Orig. file name--> Shivaji.mp3
  Encrypted file name in iPOD --> SDFR.mp3
  
  I am working on this will post more details.

  Raknahs, good observation. But you know what, the name changes does not affect the mp3 playback as such 😁 ... plus theres always the idv3 tag to know more information on the file.
