There are two pieces of software out there that are more greedy and bloated than Apple’s music-playing, music-downloading title: AOL Instant Messenger and Microsoft Internet Explorer.
I hate iTunes.
I’m sick and tired of Apple getting a pass on quality control just because they gave us the Holy Roman iPod Empire and, by a roll of the dice, beat out 10 comparable music download services, both of which are jam packed into our worlds and force-fed to us through iTunes, a software title that just about creeps by on 4 GB of RAM.
It started out innocently enough with iTunes for managing and syncing your iPod and downloading new songs. But where did this incompetent “Genius” come from as it utterly paralyzes my computer from doing the one thing I’m actually trying to do — play a single song from my library?
What’s a decent sized audio library for anyone in their mid-20s? I have 2,000 songs that fit into a space under 8 gigs and play perfectly find on both my new Nano and my original third-generation iPod. Why is it that these same songs can bring a multi-core computer to its knees under the banner of iTunes?
And who gave Apple permission to try and install Safari and several other programs on my computer under the false auspices of “upgrading my iTunes to the latest version.” AIM tried to do that around the same time the term “adware” was coined.
Seriously, is Apple still so desperate for exposure that they will literally try and sneak their software into someone’s computer? No I don’t want Mobile Me. Thanks though.
When dragging a song from my library to a playlist is a 45 second, six click ordeal, there’s a problem here.
Strip it down! Turn off automatic art downloading. Save the Geniuses for the chess club.
In a way this is all our fault. We adopted the whole package and forked over our credit card numbers without asking questions. We can’t switch, right?
Now excuse me, there’s a new MGMT song I have to buy off the iTunes Store.
Damn, that’s crazy…
I hate Itunes as well, so you are not alone.
I use CopyTrans, and anted to use Itunes simply to rip a CD and then transfer it to copytras, to my Ipod. WELL. as soon as I tried to Sync my CD and Ipod together, Itunes pick up that some (all) of my music was not synced from Itunes. SO. Guess what it did without me comfirming? Deleted all the music from my Ipod. hmm. HATE ITUNES
Just use a program called FreeRIP Basic, it is free and it rips your CD’s to whatever folder you want in multiple formats
Apple sucks as well! There, I’ve said a bit more.
Apple makes it easy to open an account, but if you get eroneous charges on your account…try closing the account to protect yourself. It won’t be possible unless you fill out an online form and wait for some PHATASS to get around to investigating your claim. all the while the Hacker just keeps using your account to ride on your dime.
My advice to Apple/Itunes, focus on customer service, not entrapment!!!!
My advice to every customer, cancel your credit card and get a new one issued. don’t even bother trying to work with these idiots at Itunes. Once Apple/Itunes realizes that their lack of customer service is pinching their pocket, they’ll get on the ball or go the way of the dinosaur.
