Author Topic: Eugh I hate iTunes  (Read 494 times)

I've gotten several iTunes gift cards from people and I thought I'd finally try to use them. Normally if I have a computer I just listen to music via YouTube or to what my dad already had downloaded on our LAN, and if I watch movies or tv I just do it on Netflix. So I really don't have a need for iTunes, but I thought I'd check it out anyways

It seems like they're just trying their absolute hardest to make things difficult for you if you don't own all of their Apple products already.
So even if you'll never use it (which I won't with all my gift cards), they require you to put in all sorts of billing and payment information that I keep having to bother people to get over and over since it repeatedly wants verification.

As far as I can tell, downloading music works alright. I don't know about Movies or TV, but books are a pain. That was the biggest thing I had interest in looking at, but apparently I can't read anything unless I have an i-something. ipad, iphone, etc. Lucky me, I have nothing like that. And even if I could read it, it won't let me buy anything unless I own one. But I couldn't ever read it anyways since they're apparently in a format nothing can read, and even if it could be read, you'd have to get rid of something else blocking anything but ibooks from using it.

So now I have loads o mone and nothing to do with it. Thanks Apple :I

i'd be like "why don't you give them to me?"

but i don't have a use for them either

gotta love the difficulty of itunes


speaking of itunes how to i just "simply" add music/videos to an ipod because it's as confusing as hell

you can hand them over to me, i've got a little ipod nano that i continue to use simply because of how little bullstuff it gives me
but yeah itunes itself is a huge pain in the ass

Probably shoulda mentioned: Even if I wanted to, I'm not giving away the money on iTunes. It's my dad's account since I initially had to use his payment information. I don't exactly have a bank account or anything yet so I had no information
