iPodRip is a commercial iPod recovery tool for Mac OS X featuring an iTunes style interface, complete data recovery from your iPod and seamless integration with iTunes. It was originally released in August 2003 and has since had over 2 million downloads.

According to the Little Appfactory support site, iPodRip supports the 10.4 (Tiger) and 10.3 (Panther) versions of Mac OS X, but no mention is made of 10.5 (Leopard). 1st-5th Gen as well as the iPod Mini and iPod shuffle are purported to work with iPodRip, but the compatibility list (copyright 2006) does not make reference to the 2007 crop of iPods, including the iPod Touch or the iPhone.

It is one of the products developed out of the MacHack (Convention) hacks during MacHack 2003. However, the developer never demonstrated it thinking the hack "too simple" when compared to Unstoppable Progress and Interface UnBuilder, both of which wowed the audience.
