But if you do require reasons as to why I dislike iPods/Apple etc I'll give them to you.
I dislike the interface because 1) You cannot physically check the number of plays certain tracks have been played without syncing your iPod that sucks.
2) When playing a track if the artist name is long it doesn't show it all. It gets cut off, again crap.
I dislike the whole iPods are superior people because most of them are sheep and bought them because "they are cool" are fashionable.
There are better players out there, but most teenagers and early twenties believe only Apple make them, rather sad to be honest.
I dislike the fact it is a real pain the neck to remove tracks from your iPod once it's on. Creative had the right idea, it's drag & drop and you can actually "go inside" the player and remove the track/s you want.
Not so easy with an iPod because they bowed to pressure to make it difficult so piracy was harder if you were round a friends and wanted stuff from their iTunes folder.
Enough reasons for you????????

Z-dude:
One question mark is usually sufficient. I would urge caution as you may inadvertently disarm this ky on your keyboard making internet addressing all that more difficult.
You have supplied many very good reasons. If I were a teenager or early twenty I would rejoice in your wisdom. But, alas, I'm past all of that and now can claim 58 healthy years completed. I also collect music, with some 28,000 songs digitized and, at this juncture, I find iTunes to be a terrific interface. Glad to know there are others that reward their users experience in similar ways.
Sorry that you felt the need for aggression. If it makes you feel any better, I thought your reply was easy to understand and... suitably obnoxious.
Have a grand and glorious day,
