Itunes must have been developed by a team with little understanding of usability. The interface looks ok and seems like it would be simple to use…then you sync your Iphone to it and spend the rest of your time messing around with it. Why offer a music store on the iphone that when you sync it with your home pc – it wipes it out of your songs list, It’s a nightmare of a programme. Can’t Apple just get the guys that developed the Iphone to build a new Itunes (I rate the way my Iphone works). Sadly to say, at the moment I would prefer to use windows media player on my Iphone!!! It would probably save them about 10,000 support calls a day if Itunes worked how it should.

I would just like it to not run incredibly slow on my 3.0ghz core2duo system and not crash.

I just want to move stuff from my computer to my iphone and it takes forever just to get it into itunes. I thought apple was supposed to be easier, simpler, and higher performance. As much as I hate microsoft, they don’t have anything I know of with such poor performance.

The millions of tiny checked boxes in the row next to each line item still cracks me up…

I agree, focusing the application back on music would bring huge benefits.

For me, the biggest improvement to the application would be able to extend the metadata. I’d like to track performers, the instruments they play, producers, etc. And that’s just at the track level. Adding metadata at the album and artist level would also be huge. As it is, I’m left wanting a real database application or some way to extend the iTunes database…

itunes needs to quit wasting my time ! Soon.

So bad, it is, that I listen to less music. Time’s too precious; in short supply. Because itunes is the switchboard for its devices, which are admittedly the coolest around, most put up with it….but there will be a long-term price. Angst is getting embedded deep in the unconscious of many…..Apple needs to fix the issues, or another competitor will move in, or a generation that supports Apple’s innovation will not longer be such committed supporters.

My iTunes genre’s are all messed up. My iPod’s have all been shuffles since the 10GB touchwheel faded into cold storage duty. Nice post freeke.

i hate iTunes. basically everything about it is inferior. i use folders that i put in a specific order by genre and artist to file my mp3s, i use winamp to play them, and rockbox OS on my iPod for drag and drop mp3 moving and playback of many other compression types. i do love my ipod nano, it has withstood 2.5 years of heavy abuse, but it is best when the apple OS is removed.
