Random Thoughts on Sunday

Hey there guys. I always hated iTunes, probably because until last year, I always had a Windows machine and if you remember back when it launched on Windows back in 05, Steve Jobs said it was akin to giving a person in hell ice water. Boy was he right about that. That's why I never bought an iPod, since iTunes was just a colossal disaster on Windows. However, last year, I got a MacBook and started using iTunes and realized that it really ran well on the Mac. So, you can imagine my shock to learn that Apple is planning the imminent death of the program. Not to mention the fact that my girlfriend gave me her old iPod right after I got my Mac. I use the iPod in my car plus my old hifi system has a dock for it.

Needless to say, I'm wondering how this is all going to work in the streamlined Music app and if I'm still going to be able to even sync my device. And, it's not just me that's upset about this.

Needless to say, I'm not the only one that's a little concerned about how I'm going to continue to sync my trusty little old iPod.
