Apple is a pain with their ITunes, I know they have to protect their investment but they cant spite themselves by cutting out half their audience either.

So much for me using my ipod with my linux box. I was hoping there was a solution. Seems like a bad idea to exclude a fairly sizable market from buying your product.

Thanks for the info anyway.

I was fortunate to have a friend buy an i-pod and try to fiddle faddle with that itunes crap on my computer for a few hours. After watching her deal with that nightmare, I have steered clear of Apple and their i-tunes saga. :/

Apple had me sold on an i-pod for christmas but I found I-tunes a nightmare of a program to understand and get to work. I am computer savey so not me at fault. Even now two days down the line I have my music on it but as software i-tunes gets a big thumbs down.

‘note how the piece has over 1000 “Do not Recommend this story” votes from enraged Apple enthusiasts’

Choose Apple. Choose a gadget. Choose a statement. Choose proprietary. Choose to look like a cock who’s wearing white headphones. Choose something with shit batteries. Choose poor security protection. Choose not to choose, you utterly ignorant over-paid twat. Choose to work really hard to get a job in journalism at the BBC and then undermine yourself by writing a great big advert for a new product.

If they were all turkeys, they’d probably celebrate Christmas.
