thus, i guess, we have a new topic @ hand... conspiracy between Steve Jobs & Balmer to force users to have windooooz just to be able to install iTunes to update their music collections or download their pictures or movies...
unless one wants to go MacIntosh all the way, of course.

I agree, it's stupid. And what I'm going to say next is also stupid, but it can be done with any Linux box (router, n8x0, n900, ..., etc.) and an iPod touch with no jail breaking.

Set up a mail server on a Linux box and mail some files to an account that you also set up on the iPod. Done. Sure, your tunes now have to sit in a mailbox, but they're actually on the device and you can play them. But yeah, still stupid.

Let's face it, the war is over and Apple won. This community is like Galapagos, still unaware of capitulation. Sit back, relax and enjoy corporate democracy:)

I disagree on both accounts. Freedom of choice is ironically what Apple brought to the table with their oft-heralded 1984 commercial.

Yet, 27 years later they have become the so-called corporate masters, attempting to unify all under one banner, their own.

Weird bit o' trivia... at the beginning of their historic "1984" commercial, people were piling into a tube labeled "14". 14th letter of the alphabet = N.

Stock price has nothing to do with ELOP. It has to do that the war is over. No time for counteroffensive

Your style of rhetoric seems familiar. Hmm...
