The Battle with iTunes

It's been 24 hours and I'm still trying to get my iPod loaded with music. It turns out that iTunes was designed neither for nor by humans. Steve Jobs is the Bill Gates of the Apple world.

iTunes has been importing 2 copies of songs into the music library. Also it takes forever to do anything. Then it frequently unsubscribes from podcasts. In fact it's whole handling of podcasts in haphazard.

Update: I FINALLY got everything back on my iPod although now the ID3 tags that iTunes uses to identify songs are all wrong. It will take considerable time for me to fix everything, but at least I have music again.
