Best argument you could come up with is an insult, the sign of a massive IQ.

That's not an insult, that's a question.

yes and is probably done on purpose imo. Just dragging the sliders on a seriously powerful pc it is sluggish. Same slider, same content on a mac book pro sitting next to it, and it is silky smooth.

Maybe Microsoft don't make it easy, holding back the competition, their own offering is bloody awful after all.

true, didn't actually think of it from that angle

I would have thought the apple software engineers would have compared the two side by side and given Bill a quick phone call if they felt something dodgy was going on though?

It's not great, but at least it works better than iTunes!

iTunes is not bad considering how evil Microsoft are. Poor Apple engineers, having to work on that platform. What sort of life is that, having to work in isolation whilst your peers are eating free lunch and watching dancing girls on the campus.

ORLY maybe you wanna show me where that is in cliches for dummies then or even where the "cliches for dummies" you refer to exists?

No?

So a thinly veiled insult then...

Good, glad we got more of your BS out of the way then.

It amazes me that when anyone elses experience does not match your own everybody else is dumb, too stupid, a sheep or whatever other insult you have to hand.

But hey, if you are happy with its limitations, then I have no beef, it just isn't good enough for me, I am happy you are so easily pleased.

Maybe one day Apple will includes something really useful like a Micro SD card socket so you aren't forced to pay circa £100 (£80 on ipad) for an extra 16gb or another £100 (£80 on ipad) for 32gb storage which on other devices costs £9 & £18 respectively. Yeah, Apple would never profiteer and rip people off like "evil" Microsoft would they?

£100 for 16gb of memory, because people are too dumb to change an SD card right...

Sorry but iTunes is a poor piece of software on Windows and Mac.

Sure it works fine with a single device, but is awful at dealing with multiple devices.

I guess thy will catch up one day.

Good thing about it is wireless sync to iPad. Really works well.

You can use SD cards, Apple even provide a nice protective sleeve for you to keep a card in. The sleeve, some might call it a socket has a dock connector on the bottom, how cool is that?

It's just another way to damage the fragile ipod dock on the bottom.

Looks so cool having a huge white dongle on your phone.

I assume memory expansion is difficult due to the lockdown on the operating system?
