it is better than iTunes for sure

I assumed it would be.

I bought into the hype ever so briefly. And to be honest, I have to give credit where credit is due--Apple has caused at least three or four revolutions in the tech industry.

The Mac, iPod, iPhone, and iPad were all what I would consider "revolutionary." And good for them.

But I really got tired of iOS, which is stable but dull (I went Android->iOS->Android and might like to try Windows phone next). Similarly the Airport Extreme was very stable but had horrible software (the fact that I had to install software to administer it was annoying, and it was, typically apple, not very flexible).

And then there's iTunes. One of the worst pieces of software I've ever used. It's a shame the Zune didn't catch on . . it's software was much, much better.

I think I get annoyed by the cult of mac as much as anything--people who won't even consider anything else, even when there are better alternatives out there.

Post Steve Jobs, there are definitely better alternatives out there.
