iTunes vent:

I mean no disrespect to those who use iTunes (what's wrong with you?!) but I feel I need to vent a little bit about it. I won't mention the obvious "the sound quality with iTunes is crap" because that's pretty obvious. I will however mention the fact that EVERY DAMN TIME I would open iTunes, I would get this popping up:

Seriously? How many god damn times does Apple need to release a new update that will more than likely lead to a much more infuriating experience with their product. I will admit that I do love my iPod Touch and I wouldn't do anything to get rid of it, but c'mon, they can at least try a little harder, especially with the sales they bring in, and the fact that they stream new albums. It finally got to the point that I was irritated with how much it would slow down my computer every time I started it up, that I just got rid of it and got MediaMonkey, which has proven to be a lot more useful, and it can sync with my iPod which is a huge seller, especially for someone like me who is constantly changing my music. Enough about that though, I may as well bring the quality of sound into this rant.

I can't stand it, when I used to pay for the music through iTunes, I would receive an album with some of the lowest quality albums that I have ever paid for, at which point I decided that sending / receiving music with people was the way to go, because I was for one, saving money, and two, I was getting the quality of music that I can appreciate. I mean, I just want to state again that it's as if Apple is just "trying" to fix their product that it doesn't become completely obsolete while also maintaining it's users, which is slowly declining unless you're one of those "I don't use anything other than Apple" people.

I don't want to touch on much more, because I can go hours and hours on this one topic.
