iTunes is fucking STUPID.

Yep. I bought a bunch of stuff with iTunes, not realizing I couldn't share them with co-workers/friends. So now I just scan in cds I own, put them into iTunes, and whenever I get an iPod, I'll transfer all of it onto that thing. Otherwise, fuck it. I'll never spend money on their shit again.

Have you tried Napster since they went legit? None of that Quicktime bloatware crapola.

i don't like it either, but the radio stations are aaight, as are the visuals... but the music layout and organization SUCKS

use ourtunes to share your itunes library with other users on your network.

i like itunes a lot, but i've never used their store. i'm not yet good enough to pay for things that're free.

what's the problem? i like it a lot.

I only bought stuff because work gave us all a gift certificate.

Yeah, the organization is driving me batshit! I had stuff on my mp3 player nicely organized into band folders and album subfolders, then copied it onto the hard drive--and then iTunes copies it elsewhere on the hard drive and does crazy shit with the folders. And the whole "library" thing is for shit anyway. Grrr!

I haven't even tried buying (renting?) anything from them, but the whole way it imports stuff goes through me like a shoe to the gonads!!!

HAHAHAHAH!

Your poor gonads!

Well, I don't really buy music online, as I'm evil and can find just about anything I want for free. ;) I was just using it as a music player because it's the default app on Mac, but I'm gonna have to find something else before I have to go choke Steve Jobs.

Speaking for myself, I just hate the way it imports stuff and "organizes" stuff based on mp3 tags, which a lot of my files don't have (at least correct ones). I want to have my own organization structure on the hard drive, and then just choose a folder and click "play in . . ."

Napster has this deal where you can listen to each song 5 times for free. With the way I check out tunes, that should last me for at least a year. Hee.

Actsyooally, I wonder if their software has somehow been fucking with my browser, specifically cookies, history, etc. I dunno. Anything's possible.

Sigh.

i'm not able to multi-tag (or cross-tag, as the kids these days like to say), that's my biggest peeve. and it sucks memory like a mofo. and it's a pain to delete stuff from the library. and i can't import stuff from other people's ipods like i can with winamp. and I SWEAR TO GOD the shuffle function is moody.

I often hate iTunes.

I hate the tags thing too. "ID3-Tag IT 3" software is good for correcting multiple ID3 tags. You can select the entire content of a folder and tag based on filename/artist.

I want my own structure too and I accidentally reorganized a lot of things without proper tags and boom, I have a folder of unknown...
