This app wiped my iPod too. Used it on a macbook with os x 10.4. Mp3s were all 
still 
there, including their data and artwork, but they wouldn't play instead staying 
at 
0:00. When iPod connected to iTunes, the files would not play in iTunes either.

I was using iPoddisk in conjunction with two iPods at once (a classic and a 
nano 
that I bring to the gym). The wiping issue occured to both iPods. Not ALL songs 
became corrupted, but 90% or so. Seems to be no discrimination whatsoever in 
how or 
what types of files became corrupt versus which stayed normal. When I delete 
corrupted tracks and replace them with their original files they work fine 
again.

I have since discovered the problem. Some like on the very site led me to an 
extremely old version of 
MacFUSE. A version that had no settings icon in system settings, installed 
itself all over my macbook and 
could not be deleted easily.

This caused not only ipoddisk to wipe my ipod repeatedly, but totally screwed 
my macbook up. nothing 
worked, applications open and closed randomly, i lost lots of files. My brand 
spanking new aluminum 
macbook with Mac OSX 10.5 with the latest updates and patches, had become 
completely unusable. 

Using my old Windows PC which i dug out and dusted off, i was able to get on 
the internet and figure out 
what went wrong. i found the newest version of MacFUSE which, against my 
instincts, I installed on my Mac. 
This had the effect of removing all the hundreds of files installed by the 
older version. At least it would seem 
so.

My Mac is running perfect now, no problems whatsoever.

I am, however, apprehensive about installing ipoddisk again. 

It is totally unacceptable how this application is presented here. The fact 
that I was somehow led to this 
ancient version of MacFUSE is very negligent. I expected more from Google.
