Gah! It's so irritating, isn't it!

I know its taken me two weeks to figure out the new iTunes, its totally buggered up my sad personal system I have for my music, I don't like change, get them off my land!

Same here! I had a way of using iTunes and I can't use it that way anymore!

And now they've changed YouTube AGAIN! And the Radio iPlayer! And soon Hotmail is changing to Outlook! Make it stop!

I was just baffled people pay that much to download music.

I buy my downloads from band websites or Amazon. iTunes is extortionate.

I use it as a player, its handy for podcasts too. I don't like the windows one, I am very sad and anal and all the music has to be where I want it with the right artwork. I miss the little box in the corner that used to show the artwork. It is really harking back to when I used to alphabetise my record collection. Sad but that's the way I like it.

Downloads are for wimps. Where's the fun in that? You can't listen to "Sticky Fingers" or "Selling England By The Pound" without looking at the cover artwork or reading the booklet.

Is that the one with Ringo Starr on drums?

I open each iTunes update with a sense of impending doom, this after signing up to an agreement I cannot be arsed to read, and which for all I know may involve surrendering my first born son. I click on 'agree' only in the forlorn hope that this update might include a fix for all the bugs caused by the previous updates. It never does. And the new version is invariably less user friendly and full of crap gimmicks I am not interested in.

And of course my iMac is almost a year old, so I give it maybe another six months before Apple 'upgrade' all their software it to the point where it won't run on my machine anymore. Bastards.

I am continuing to click on 'No Thanks' when offered the iPlayer update. It works just fine as it is.

I'm deluding myself into thinking that if I continue to press 'no thanks' they'll abandon the change.

I managed that until I tried to plum in my son's birthday present - an iPodTouch.
Wouldn't work with the old software.
F**kers.

I do that sometimes, then get annoyed with myself.
