Why is this exactly?
You said — I lothe iTunes. Worst. software. ever.

Actually, I would have to disagree, because I bought the software before it was ever at Apple, and it was the best software around for doing what it did. I thought those software developers did a *bang-up* job of designing their software.
And apparently, so did Apple, as they purchased it from those developers, after they gained a major marketshare in the market (for that software). And since that time, Apple has continued to improve and improve it all along.
I can’t see that it was ever bad software before Apple had it and it was simply developed by a couple of developers and I can’t see that it’s bad software now, since Apple has continually improved it ever since they bought it from those developers.
