Genuine question -
what is it that people find wrong with iTunes? I use it, but have nothing to compare it to, so I don't know what's not good about it relative to other options.

iTunes is fine
so long as you're happy to only use it to buy music, don't try to play stuff bought on iTunes on a non-iTunes device, don't mind the thing bloatwaring the fuck out of your PC and are OK with it force-updating and bombing you out of whatever it is you're doing at the time.

I'd like to think it's changed, it's been a while since I last had to use it.

What do you use instead?

( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Thu 6 Oct 2011, 11:36, Reply)

Torrents, mostly
CDex for ripping.

I don't use an iPod
iPods require iTunes.

I don't think it auto updates anymore
it's often prompting me to update, but I just say no unless I know I am not going to be using the computer for a while.

And yeah, I only use it for music, so anything else it may do doesn't affect me.
