I started an earlier thread over my problems with an iPOD. Since then I've come to hate them even more, and when I talk to people about them it turns out most of them have the same reactions as I do logically speaking. But they are a hot item regardless.

I know a family that had problems with two of them. They were told that Apple would do nothing for the one that was over a year old and now useless, but for the other one would replace it with a used iPOD of similar vintage for the perceived difference in price.

My iTUNES software repeatedly bombed my system because I was unfortunate enough to use a computer that wasn't a MAC.
