You say all sorts of things, but you never back up anything.
It's as if you don't want to help the OP.
All you want to do is protect your decision to purchase Apple products, and 
to stay entirely within the self-imposed walled garden.

You bought on:
a. fear
b. cachet
c. single-vector solutions

So, anything that threatens that, is a threat to you.

a. You fear any operating system outside of Apple's own operating systems 
or Windows that is NOT running hundreds upon hundreds upon hundreds of 
megabytes of Apple bloatware just to get the *simplest* of jobs done, like 
transferring a file (which should take zero additional software!).

b. You never bought on performance so anything that works better (which is 
just about everything, if you include working outside the walled garden as 
a criterion), is a threat to you - for example, bluetooth file transfer is 
universal outside of iOS yet you deprecate it simply because you can't do 
it. You need hundreds upon hundreds upon hundreds of megabytes of bloatware 
to perform your vaunted tasks, and even then, they fail to connect so 
something as ubiquitous as Linux.

c. You can only think of the single-button-mouse solution that Apple 
provides to you. So if that's Airdrop, that's the *only* way you can think, 
and it doesn't even dawn on you that Airdrop doesn't work outside the 
vaunted walled garden. Likewise with your iTunes suggestions, which, again, 
don't work outside the walled garden and which take hundreds upon hundreds 
upon hundreds of megabytes of Apple bloatware just to perform the absolute 
simplest of tasks, and even then, you're hugely restricted as to what you 
can do, and often the bloatware will *destroy* your painstakingly prepared 
libraries without even so much as a mention that they're totally destroying 
everything you worked on outside the walled garden.

Only in the *latest* release is there even a *hint* that Apple will destroy 
everything, and that's because tens of thousands of people complained about 
your vaunted software destroying everything without a single obvious and 
overt warning at the time they were destroying *all* your data.

Trust me - I know *exactly* how you Apple Mongers think, and, I know that 
you will defend Apple at all costs (of course, never with sufficient detail 
so as to be useful) - and worse - you don't help the OP because your main 
concern is to protect your Apple image borne of 
a. Fear
b. Cachet
c. Single-button-mouse solutions
