I've been trying that on my 5G, it did raise the level high enough to drive my Behringers at decent volume(no, it WAS ear splitting, my ears bled and I was rolling on the floor) but wrecked my Sony earphones, could be coincidental but music which sounded ok (Dark Side of the Moon - straight off CD as AAC 192) was sounding awful and distorted. Now it's been recapped it sounds ok, the Sony earphones are still knackered though..

Does anyone know why euro versions are capped? There is obviously a good reason!?!?! I didn't measure it but I'm sure that the battery life went down faster..

I think I'm gonna sue the author of GoPod
