Screw you, Steve Jobs

For the last month, my iPod has caused me to scream obscenities, throw shit across my room, smoke a lot of weed, and I might've cried once or twice.

Recently, I reconfigured my computer and re-installed all my essential software, including iTunes. To my surprise, iTunes was picking up more music from my external hard drive than before. So, I thought it would be a good idea to clean out my iPod and upload all the music again and get it organized.

I plug the iPod in, and let iTunes start syncing all my music. I have 80GB worth of music, so I let it sit there over night. I woke up to see that the syncing was unsuccessful with weird error notices and my iPod remained empty. This continued to happen over and over again, until I was forced to go song by song, and even then, iTunes would crash after 10 minutes. After a month of trying different shit, I finally have a program to bypass iTunes and upload music, but it takes long...My iPod has been syncing for three days and is still not complete.

After reading up about my problem, I found forums of people having the same problem with iPod classics. Apple offers no help. If you want to talk to tech support, it's 30 bucks to talk to them over the phone, plus other charges after the session....FOR TECH SUPPORT!?

One post said that Apple has created a bug on purpose....Whenever those annoying messages come up to upgrade to iTunes 10.2.2.1.1.1.1.1.1 or whatever new version they create, DON'T UPGRADE. Some believe that Apple creates iTunes glitches that won't let you sync older apple devices in order to get the customers to upgrade...and trust me...if you saw the errors coming up in my iTunes, it doesn't seem all that far-fetched.

I read all the time about Steve Jobs answering personal emails from the general public and you BEST BELIEVE I will be emailing him and his gay black turtleneck that he wears for every public appearance.

I'm tired of buying Apple shit because it's trendy. Apple used to be the shitty computers that you use in school...Remember? Now they think they can get us to buy whatever useless device they put out as long as it's stamped with an apple logo and has some stupid commercial with Indie music playing.

If Steve Jobs somehow stumbles upon this post while Googling his name late at night (I'm taking a guess about what he does on his free time), NBD has this to say to you....FUCK YOU STEVE JOBS!
