How do you share an ipod's content from the sync'd Mac to a PC?

I have a Mac and a PC. The iPod is sync'd (i believe that's the term) to the Mac but I'd like to make the music available to the PC – if not as well – instead of.

Does any one know what steps I should take or the software I need?

Best
Rob

Can't be done. You cannot copy iTunes managed content OFF an iPod. You can only move data ON to an iPod and only by the computer that is the current "manager" of that iPod.

If you just want to play music on the PC, enable sharing. Copying music OFF the iPod is more complicated. See this for starters. You can get music that you got off of the iTMS by pressing Store -> Check for purchases. You'll have to have the PC authorized as one of your 5 iTunes computers for your account to do this.
