"APPLE had introduced volume restricted iPOD's for the European market when I bought my first iPOD summer of 2003. That's why I wanted to make a freeware tool to avoid this restriction so I could enjoy my new APPLE iPOD.

euPOD VolumeBoost is a small tool that alters something in the iPOD database so the output volume on the iPOD gets higher. Since this tool DOESNT touch your music files (if mp3gain is off), it is very fast and will update any iPOD database in a couple of seconds.
This tool also works with all iPODS, including US iPODS. However, they should need less boost than EU iPODs."
