Are you familiar with video transcoding and how that all works with the Pogoplug?

Hi mbreeze,

Welcome to the weird and wonderful world of Pogoplug. You'll find it will amaze and frustrate you many times. It is possible to download music to your phone but it's not as simple as videos. What you have to do is From the Library screen, press the search button on your phone and type in the name of the track you are trying to download. Once found, long hold and the option to download should appear. Then go back to Library and once downloaded, you should find your track in the 'My Saved Files'. You can then play the track using your Android Music Player. Hope this Helps.

Awesome this worked perfectly. Thank you very much.

Kind of stupid that you have to go through all of that, but it is a solution. Thanks for your time!
