Recently, my sister got an iPhone, so she nicely gave me her iTouch to use. I was very happy because my Zune broke recently, and all I got was a gift card of a 120 dollars that I don't want to spend at office max >_>.

So I plug in my ipod touch and realize one scary factor of owning once..iTunes.

I've been using Zune software for the last 3 years, and to be honest, it blows away iTunes in every possible category. Sadly, you can't use Zune music player to sync an iTouch, so I tunes it is.

The second I upload my music folder into iTunes..The problems immediately start.

First off all: half of my music is in WMA (Windows Media Audio AKA something windows, which Apple refuses to acknowledge :x).

So there starts my long process of converting all my WMA folders into MP3 (preferably LAME VBR). After a long 4 hours of converting, my process is done.

But then begins other random problems that took forever to solve. For some reason, it refused to put some albums in my iTunes library, so then begins the process of converting those too.

So far the advantages of iTunes:

My last.fm will work normally as opposed to using annoying Foobar 2.0.

Disadvantages:

..Everything else?

So yeah..Back to the basics..:x

Anyone else ever have to switch back to iTunes besides me by the way?
