  • Go on then... indulge me. I know you've got nothing better to do. Since about version 9 it's a pain but for compatibility across devices it does the job of consolidating all the stuff I've uploaded over the years and sporadically download (without having to copy/convert/blah to separate cloud media libraries). I also like that I can control what I'm listening to on my computer from my phone. Would be interested in a nice looking alternative if you have suggestions?

  • Isn't there an Apple thread for this? This is the PC Tech thread, "Proper Computer" (cue Apple vs. Windows PC debate). I abandoned my iPod 10 years ago. It has sat in a drawer unused for that time. iTunes at the time was a slow, bloated pile of shite. I've only seen it recently on my gf's machine and not used it - can't tell if it's fast or not but it seems to be running a lot of shit in the background. I have no idea what you're talking about in terms of consolidation - what's wrong with a folder named 'Music' and a tonne of mp3s in it? Ipods lack of folder structure sucks arse. If I'm playing music on my computer I'm at my computer so I have no need for my phone talking to it and no idea what software might allow you to do that. Sonos rings a bell but that might be all standalone speakers/controllers.

  • Ha, simmer down Bill Gates, they are all just personal computers, no need to get all culty.
    Also, where do dual boot Hackintosh's sit in your eyes?
    Mac vs PC debate is such a yawn fest.
