I really don't know how anybody uses this piece of crap application. It sucks. The interface sucks, transferring music sucks, cover art sucks etc. I really don't know how so many lame computer users can use this thing.

I pointed the kids laptop to a share with all my music and it took 3 days for itunes to build the xml file. What a joke. Kids want my to update all the cover art on their ipods so they can use cover flow, itunes won't allow you to do that and if they do, it is not apparent to me.

You need iTunes 7 and a 3rd gen Nano or 6th gen ipod vid for Cover Flow.
Who knows if you will be able to update software on the older ipods to use it.
But I'm a Tard , cause I'm one of those that thinks iTunes is easy :D

I need to start using Itunes. I use to use limewire, then my old laptop died (related incident?) I have a new iPod shuffle, so I will be using Itunes, soon, someday (ok, I'm kinda scared, maybe my kids can show me )

If I had to pick between Itunes and Napster, hands down Napster. It is way easier to use than POS Itunes.

Hey Deb, I have been hearing a LOT of horror stories about limewire. Problem is it's peer to peer file sharing which "opens" your computer to anyone borrowing a song from you.

I know....I heard tooo late and it killed my laptop that was a present from Matt for our 15th wedding anniversary:cry:
All it can do now is play music. We had to buy a "port thingy" to transfer all the pictures we took in the last 4 years. Otherwize we would have lost them.
Deb<------------needs a new pastie for her new laptop:D

It's a pad. Cover corks work in a similar fashion also known as tampons. Hope this clears things up.

I agree that iTunes sucks, for the average user i guess it's ok for syncing you iPod and listening to music, but for any semi advanced user that likes to customize his music selection iTunes has been so 'Dummied Down' that trying to do anything other than listen or sync is a joke.
Go to winamp pro with the Media Library iPod plugin (ml_iPod), not only is it way better, but you can also grab music off the ipod onto any other computer without iTunes telling you it is going to erase everything.

I have an extremely extensive music collection and itunes does not handle it well. I am not going out on a limb when I say I am a very advanced computer user as well as my peers. We all hate it. I will check out the winamp plug in.

Got it. Thanks. And by the way, your avatar- that was taken outside Cozmo's. Right?

It where itunes displays the cover art. The covers flows left to right and visa versa. They have incorporated this feature into the new nano.

Now that I have an iphone I have no choice in using itunes. Activation, email, contacts, photos and calendar are all through itunes. :confused: Sucks

The cover flow looks cool. Would not do much for me as I only use the thing plugged into the truck or boat head unit. I am not going to stare at that little focker while driving.
I think the latest version of iTunes is easier for me (the novice user)than maybe even one year ago. So I consider the dumbed down version my version.
At least the freaking iTunes check boxes do something now.
Stupid Fruit.

OK, so I am trying to add the cover art and in order to drag the art into the artwork window I have to be playing a track from the album. That is lame. You also can't select just one album and ask to fetch the artwork from itunes. It tries to get every cover missing and with as much music as I have it takes a couple of hours. I tried to sync it and itunes told me I couldn't because I have too much music. So I tried to sync the "recently added" figuring it would know I just added 2k tracks yesterday and it deleted all my tracks on my ipod. Great product Apple. Why it can not find ACDC Back In Black in the itunes store is beyond me. Oh I know why, it's because they don't sell it.

Come to find out when you drag artwork into itunes, it embeds the cover into the MP3 file. I don't want that and nowhere could I find info that this is what happens.
This is exactly what I am talking about when I say this application is for the Lame. Most don't care to control this kind of thing but advanced users do. It really sucks that apple can't tell us about this. Assholes.
