I don't get it either. I do have occasional problems with iTunes (mainly
that it seems to lock up frequently while I'm listening to iTunes
Radio).  But a simple restart fixes that.

iTunes 11 has been pretty awful for me. iTunes on iOS is generally OK,
but still has a lot of problems.

For example, the other day I was in the song list, but the bottom menu
bar had vanished, so there was no way for me to get back to playlists of
albums, I had to force quit it.

Also, when streaming from iTunes Match I will often get a hiccough where
a second of so of another song will suddenly play in the middle of the
current song. Often this will stop play back of the current song.

iTunes Radio will often skip to the next song before finishing the
current song.

The app will sometimes become unresponsive for extended periods of time,
and its behavior with Bluetooth, especially when there is an event that
interrupts playback is ... capricious.

It's certainly not without flaws. I'll give you that. I do wish Apple
would spend more time fixing its many bugs. My point is that even with
these issues, it doesn't inconvenience me enough that I'd bother going
out of my way to find some other solution that frankly won't meet all of
my needs.

Oh, well, yeah, that's certainly true here to.

Although there have been times I've been pretty damn angry at iTunes 11.

It is *still* trying to sync (and failing) two apps to my iPad on
occasions, and has been since iOS 7 GM. I've been through seemingly
countless hoops to get it to stop, and maybe the last time worked, but
every time I think it's been fixed it comes back in a week or three.

I read complaints about 11 when it first came out. I didn't see any
advantages mentioned, or at least none I noticed. I didn't install it 8-).

the only advantage of itunes 11 is that it supports ios 7. otherwise
there's no point in updating.

Don't know - iTunes had always sucked  -  just in differing degrees.

Consider a different brand/type tablet, then you won't have to think about
iTunes.

I don't seem to have the problems with iTunes the anti-people do, and I
don't know why they have some of the problems they do. iTunes never
"forces" me to go to the Store and to doesn't seem to have messed up my
computer. 

OTOH I'm just using it to do its job, I'm not trying to tell it how. 

I don't find it any more imperfect (or opaque) than various other apps I've
used over the years; maybe I'm just used to working around/with
less-than-ideal situations in both s/w & life. A bit of grousing, figure
out how to cope, and get on with the job.

then you get to deal with even shittier software. have you ever seen
samsung kies?

very few people have problems with it. ipods are *still* the best
selling music player and iphones and ipads are extremely popular. all
of those use itunes.

there are always a few vocal critics who hate stuff.

of course it doesn't force anything. 

it does show the store, but you don't have to buy anything and you can
enable parental controls to block the store permanently. that will make
it difficult to buy apps or music in itunes, but you can still buy it
on the ipad.

Which is easy, because a vacuum actually doesn't suck!... It's the air
around the vacuum that pushes!  ;)

iTunes.

The cost of avoiding iTunes is that you cannot successfully use an iOS
device--iPad, iPhone, iPod--without iTunes. Better she should look at
Android. It's schlock, but it doesn't depend on iTunes.

And iTunes is schlock and iOS users depend on it.

Curious, eh?

That is simply untrue at this point.  But it is true that for certain
things (e.g. putting music and video files on the device) one wants
iTunes.

But you can buy books, music, video, etc. without using iTunes, at
least without using the desktop version.

And you can stream music and video without iTunes.  Etc.

I wouldn't recommend going into the experience of using an iPad with a
pledge never to use iTunes on your Desktop, but I essentially never do
that at this point.
