How does anyone use that thing? I mean their music shoppe, not the application itself. You purchase music, but can only download it on to one computer even though yo uhave 5 authorized computers. If anything happens to the song and you lose it then you can't redownload it, even though you BOUGHT the song >< How fucking stupid is that?

You can't copy it to a cd or an ipod?

i don't buy much music from iTunes. i go buy the album and load it into iTunes. i like the interface, way easy to use.

You can put the song on a CD or iPod. But, I don't think you can go from iPod back on to the computer. So if you don't back up the songs you bought and anything happens to the computer you lose the music you paid for.

There are other programs to load from IPOD to computer. Do an IPOD thread search at UJ, there are some really good links there.

I tried some other ones, none worked really well. And I don't mind iTunes for the loading songs onto the iPod, but just think their purchasing music side is fucked up.

My point is that there is a program out there for you to load from your IPOD to your PC in the event you have PC issues and have not backed up.

I hate how they only have portions of certain albums, and certain artists are excluded. That's crap.

They don't have contracts with all the music houses. Don't blame Itunes, blame the people who continually want to rape you at Target for $15 a CD.

Ya, I figured that...but how do you explain having certain songs on a CD, but not all of them? That's horseshit.
