New software titles have been launched by Avantquest that promise to extend the capabilities of the Apple iPod.

The range includes four new titles, iExtend, WebPodStudio, PodMediaCreator and DVD2Pod that will turn the iPod into a multi-media digital machine.

iExtend allows office documents such as emails, note and calendars to be carried on an iPod as well as the backing up important digital files.

With WevPodStudio, users will now be able to create podcasts with ease. The software aims to help users produce and broadcast radio and TV shows across the internet with minimal effort.

The software also supports iTunes allowing RSS users to find their podcast feed from the iTunes music store.

PodMediaCreator is a handy tool for budding movie directors and DJs that allows users to make and edit films and to mix mp3 files.

As a result users can cut videos to music creating unique video mixes that can then be viewed on the iPod.

DVD2Pod allows several movies to be seen on an iPod, converting movies into audio files, which are then simply opened with iTunes.

All four titles are available now for £19.99.
