"seamless integration with the software that manages it"
And seamlessly trying to ram a program down people's throats rather than allowing drag and drop.
"a relaxing, pampering environment totally controlled by Apple which leaves no room for overlapping apps, malware, extra configuration needed, too many choices"
As for continuous scrolling with a click-wheel, I've never been impressed by that. Apparently that goes for a fair few others, as iPod has since released touch and shuffle.
this makes no sense as you don't scroll on the shuffle (it either plays in order or it duh shuffles) and the iTouch has a touch screen that you flick lists on
Does "easier to expand" mean software development? I am surprised someone thinks this will play to iphone's advantage after what they've done with the appstore.
i meant it's easier to expand a grid view and split it into a bunch of screens

Media Monkey comes close, and maybe if I spent a lot of time with it, I'd like it as much as iTunes. If you use library management software and drag and drop from it, this argument for using iTunes goes away. That's how I've used iTunes for the last 3 years since my library is too big for any portable player. |

Yes there are features that us geeks would love but ultimately most don't know of these features or want them. |

I'm genuinely curious and not trying to be argumentative. This is something I do a few times a year and it's interesting to see other ways people do things. |
