Don’t get me started with describing apple and their arrogance. There was a 100+ dollar charge on my debit card from Itunes a few years ago and I had never ANY dealing with apple or any of their crunchy offspring. They would not even talk to me without an Itunes account ID...which I never or would ever have such a mark of the beast.

Fortunately, the VP of the LARGE Multi National corp I worked for was able to get a clear message to Apple that they needed to service me and quickly. The same night a bigwig mgr from Apple phoned and told me they reversed the charges and apologized.

microShaft, Apple and all other micromisfits can KMRRA.

Apple can delete your music if you do business with them—whether they choose to do it or not is up to them.

Caveat emptor.

THERE IS A SIMPLE “FIX”: Don’t use iTunes or any other Asspull product.

Problem solved.

Also Microsoft does not force updates to Windows 7 but it did to me today.
Apple knows their software like Microsoft is making changes to your pc and files without your permission.

I have auto updates turned off. My pc got slower and slower today while I was doing some work making webpages (hobby) and photos and text files would take about a minute to open. I suspected my anti virus but when I restarted the pc it was a Windows update.

iTunes is clunky looking. The search box is way too small.
Nice that it syncs your iPhone but you best have the latest version of iTunes or you will be out of luck.

Thanks for the article. I have my massive music library available across several devices thanks to Apple Music and iTunes Match. A huge convenience that has allowed me to finally retire all the clunky physical media I had lying around the house like compact discs, cassette tapes and vinyl LPs.

Yes, there are some quirks you need to be aware of but overall this is amazing technology and if you truly do get stuck, a Google search will usually bring up a quick solution. This article has a few good reference links I'll bookmark. I get a kick out of all the would be luddites here who pretend to be dumber than than actually are to try and score points against Apple.

Ha Ha! The hate of these anti-Apple people is true religion. Look at the words and phrases they use - cult, beast - as they feverishly propagate a lie.

Bottom line:

In today’s world, data can be transient. It’s up to you to back it up. If you lose it, it’s your fault.
