So, I'm a bit bored, I'm getting into podcasts and wotnot, so a mate says I should try the iTunes software.

What a load of absolute crap it is too. People slate Windows Media Player all the time, but jeees, even thats a darn sight better than this itunes thing.

I know alot of people like it because they use it "in conjunction" with an ipod - although how copying a file from a-b can be seen as a great function, I do not know, but perhpas something amazing happens when you connect an ipod to this stuff...doubt it somehow.

The interface is non-intuitive, the layout is poor - to summarise, I am NOT a fan.

I think horses are rubbish.
What other rubbish things can we think of?

The word "garbage" is rubbish if you ask me!

Not the hugest fan of iTunes, but would use it over Windows Media Player anyday...I reckon the interface is far far better

But do you like Horses?
Timmeh
No they smell, fart and let their schlongs dangle all over the shop. Give me iTunes.

But what about when gas run's out?
Johnny English
Horses are dumb. They cannot operate Media Player OR iTunes. Plus their ears are too big for normal headphones.
tartan
So you have to be clever to operate itunes or Media player, interesting concept!!!
don_riina
At least you can eat horses. iTunes provides fuck all nutrition, AND had the utter, utter, utter cheek to decide to show me the krout itunes store by default. Music and German just do not go together for me. Thatzs why all their calssical composers did not add lyrics or vocal lines. They knew it would sound like utter shite.
Daisy
Their schlongs don't dangle. They pull them up in the sheath unless they are peeing or excited.

besides. You fart. Didn't you ever read the book Everyone Poops?

My anti-Windows pro OSX rant:

You've been a Windows user for too long. Use iTune on a Mac and you'll realize it is amongst the best pieces of software for its intended purpose out there. When I switched from XP -> OSX I had a hard time figuring things out because they were too simple e.g. installing programs. You mean I just drag and drop an icon into my Applications folder? That's it? No path name? No clicking on yes/no a dozen times? No reboot hen I'm done? I seriously thought I was doing something wrong.

As for uninstalling:

XP: Start -> Control Panel -> Add or Remove Programs -> (select program) -> Remove -> "Are you sure you want to remove XXX from your computer?" -> Yes -> Please wait... (Gathering required information..., Please wait while Windows configures XXX...) -> reboot (sometimes)

OSX: Drag icon into the trash. Oops, did you not mean to do that? Drag it out of the trash.

Anyway, I do like Windows XP OK (beats the shit out of 3.1, 95, 98, and especially ME), just not as much as OSX. On Windows I prefer MusicMatch to iTunes.

You do realise that you are located in Germany and thus it would be the logical deduction by iTunes to make this your default store. Change the settings...better yet, don't buy any music, why pay money for shit quality MP3? Download them free instead.
Small Town Boy
If you pay to download music from iTunes, it is cheaper to do so from the German site than from the British. 99 cents over 79p, I believe (99 cents is about 68p). One of the examples of rip-off Britain. And the catalogue will be the same, so what difference does it make?

But I'm not an expert on this; I don't believe in paying for music anymore. Those bastards have snorted enough of my money up their noses.
Kza
I dont mind buying vinyl, but paying for digital approximations of music on CD or even worse on MP3 whats that all about! Thats like samples that should be free anyway so you can listen before you decide to buy the vinyl.

The US site is even cheaper at US$0.99 and in English too.
PES
As I understand it we can only order tunes from the german site here? Has anyone been able to buy from the US site (for .99$) over here? Let me know.

Amen
Small Town Boy
That's why I mentioned the British site, because DR is from the UK. To order from the US site, you need an American credit card. But for those who do, that is obviously the best bet. Well, the third best bet after Limewire/Bearshare and AllofMP3.com.

Horse shit is good clean shit though and is usually packaged in handy pocket size portions and often piled to ease selection.

Great stuff for growing mushrooms.

Itunes is absolutely useless for growing fungi of any kind.
Exile
Horses often have women sitting astride them bouncing up and down, how is that stupid.
Someone is going to say "because its on their backs"
Yeti
Fine if you're the horse but bouncing up and down at one remove isn't great.

It's like women's volleyball, they're wearing tight shorts, jumping up and down, waving their arms, shouting and reaching for balls but it's still at one remove.

English OS, English language install of itunes. Logical deduction by iTunes should have been that I do not speak krout. Then again, iTunes also assumes by default that you would store all your music in the "My Music" folder in windows. Yuk. Whislt I'm on the subject, it also assumed I would want Quicktime installed, even when everybody knows that hardly any pornography comes in that format.

I think the horse is pretty stupid for letting it happen. Its fun though esp when they are trying to buck you off! Yee-haw!

And vice-versa; it will try and install iTunes when you download Quicktime. The iTunes-free version of Quicktime is hidden at the bottom of the page somewhere.

Quicktime is a critical part of iTunes' encoding engine.

How can they get away with that then, if MS cannot bundle IE and say its part of the OS? Double bloody standards.

I like the added white trash edge of prejudice when someone is a bigot but not such a scholarly one, like misspelling bigot words or getting references wrong.

I recall a friend's uncle who hated Italians and would say that "They should all go back to Spickland where they came from."

iTunes reads all of your computer location info - IP address, yada yada - and then determines which copyrights and royalty agreements are available in that country and, based on that, what you are allowed to buy.

Dude, what's with the tattoos anyway? Do you get more action with those?
Timmeh
Nothing wrong with kraut, spic or any other reference for anyone I reckon. Don't see me crying like a schoolgirl when I get called a sheep shagger

So, I'm a bigot, not scholarly, and cannot spell krout? How does one spell krout then? Please enlighten a non scholarly white trash bigot such as I won't you, I cannot fucking wait.

Perhaps thats the problem. My aplogies, I will only use the black and white american descriptive law that dicates that things are either "great" or "suck". I will also ensure that I don't use any long words in the future, just for you.

Kraut.

Don't forget the capital K smile.gif
don_riina
Kraut?!? My arse, that might be how the krouts spell it. Same as english spell roast beef, and the frogs call us rosbif.
Anyhoo, I personally think that the krouts use of the word kraut stems from a linguistic misunderstanding of the french word for raw. Like the brits fucked up with the word grape.
Small Town Boy
krout

Kraut

Sorry wink.gif
don_riina
Must be true then if its on the internet.

What about the fact that I might want to refer to krouts being shit at cooking kraut?
"Kraut kraut is shit" is rubbish. It doesn't distinguish between kraut, and the fact that I think that the krout version of it is shit compared to say, the french version.

Utter folly.

Removing the shit (smegma or whatever it is) that builds up on a bloke horse's knob, it is normally removed through a bit of shagging in the wild population but not so if your man horse is domesticated and not doing the deed. I only have this useless bit of info because I chick I know is into these creatures and has loads of them
Daisy
ah yes. We just called it getting his sheath cleaned. I had a domesticated and gelded man horse so we had to do this regularly. But I payed the vet to do it. When it was clean... and he was trotting around the arena... his bits made a sucking noise when they would move back and forth inside the sheath. haha.
