Ipod artist info available?

Anyone know how I can get the artist info from my iPod? Cant tell you how many times I get asked who sings a song & I have no idea nor can i look it up.

(i download the billboard top 100 so I dont necessarily know all the songs/details)

This kills me! Any help?

nope impossible!
it can't even completely show long titles

the ipod kit is better than nothing, but far from ideal.
why you can't control the ipod via the radio controls is beyond me...

Not sure if you are using the ipod integration properly but if you do get all the song info right you will get all the details in the integration.

Sometimes when you download a song , and place it in the ipod . the info is not fully completed , so you need to check if in Itunes software all the info for the song is properly listed.

Yea and it doesn't stop there, I burned mp3's on a DVD and it can't show any tag info! WTF! Really, it already has a giant screen (MMP) so why not us it?

Also why is it you scroll up on the ipod to get to the next song but when you are in CD mode you scroll down? They should be the same. I'd also like to get a volume control next to the command knob, its ridiculous to have to move you hand to adjust the volume. And unfortunately the volume control on the steering wheel is also on the right side.
