I’m glad I’m not the only one who hates this

Back in Jan I posted this http://offbeatmammal.com/pt/blog/default.aspx?id=31&t=Apple-iPod-Updater-most-stupid-softwar

and then more recently I gave up on a bad thing and installed SongBird (http://blog.offbeatmammal.com/blogs/obm/archive/2006/10/25/SongBird-_2D00_-music-to-my-ears-_3A002900_.aspx)

[...] iTunes…Why? “I love my I pod…for the most part I like iTunes software, but why on earth can’t Apple figure out how to do software updates painlessly?
