While that's the plan Stan, I want to discuss Gus, do I get on the bus Unibili, or pee on the key?

I'd rather pay once for what I want and keep what I just paid for forever. And do so offline.
I am not evil. Does that answer your question. In fact, I am magnificent. I am pure as the driven snow, an angel. A snow angel. ❄ #
How about "morally deplorable"? At least with Apple if you're happy to play nice in their walled garden, they treat you as a customer not a product.
You should listen to a snow angel lest VERY BAD THINGS happen to you. SO NOT **** WITH THE SNOW ANGEL. ❄ #
Google leans a little more towards the creepy end of things, but I wouldn't go so far as to call them morally deplorable.
It's like I've always said around here, Google is more a hopped up Nielsen demographic generator on steroids than they are a Big Brother wannabe.
Title: Apple Deleted iPod Owners' Songs Downloaded From Competing Music Services Between 2007 and 2009
Corrected Title: iPod Owners' Songs Downloaded From Competing Music Services Between 2007 and 2009 Didn't Sync to Their iPods
So, why would it sync something to the Ipod that's not even in the Itune library on the computer? I am missing something? Does this crap even make sense?
Everything worked EXACTLY as it should. Maybe the user being dumb as a brick should be noted in the court proceedings.
BTW, If I put songs on my Iphone outside Itunes (yes, there are ways...), I don't expect Itunes to put them back on if I sync devices!!! It doesn't even know these songs exists!!!

What?? My dad had an iPod. Almost none of the music on it was from the iTunes Store, of course. This problem never occurred.
Only Apple apologists would let Apple off the hook for this. Next, you'll be saying the owners of these iPods should apologize to Apple for buying music from places other than iTunes.
Did you even read what's purported? Are you an apologist for commenting after only reading headlines of articles?
----------
Even if its not from the Itune store, you usually still use Itunes to sync it. In this case, who knows how those songs got on the phone; seemingly didn't use Itunes...
My songs all came from ripped CDs and no issue at all.
These comments are wimpy at best.
People don't seem to get it. Why should Apple have let another company into its ecosystem.
If I own a grocery store, you can't come in and tell me you are going to put your stuff on my shelves! And if you do, I would most certainly throw you and your stuff out on the curb.
After Apple wins this, and they will, I hope they take each an every individual in this sham of a class action to court and sues them into abject poverty.
haha....the true American way.
Actually it's more like me purchasing a bag from your store, going home and filling it with items I bought from your competitor's store and then you taking those items out and trashing them.
I read the article. It's Apple doing what it's always done: locking you in to its services.
Why? Did he hurt your fanboy heart. Everyone can say whatever they want... even if you don't like it.
Except that if you actually read what happens. That's not what happens. The anology doesn't fit at all BTW.
- It is more like selling a special key-chain on which all the keys are exact copies of master keys kept in a special file. Then, someone adds keys on that key-chain without putting into the file and loses that key-chain and expects the key replicator to replicate keys it doesn't have.
Isn't this not a apple centered forum and news site? If someone wants to hate on Apple why do they feel the need to do it on Macrumors?
Simple solution. Leave #
What am I missing? Didn't the record companies express concern over iTunes/ipod etc making it too easy to pirate music? so apple tightened up the itunes "ecosystem" to control and contain music in general. Not to block competition but to protect copywriter of the music companies?
AND I agree title is very misleading, i like when macrumors reports on facts AND rumors mentioned by others but don't start your own rumors or ill set up a site called "MacRumors, Rumors"

Ummm... if you bought an iPod, it belongs to you to do whatever you want with. It's not licensed software, and it's not a service. You own it, legally. It's not part of Apple's ecosystem, except in the sense that it is compatible with some other offerings of Apple. It's 100% your personal property, and if you want to run other software on it's your business. Apple can void your warranty, but that's it.
