iPods are worthless

[Galt]

I'm now on my 3rd fucking iPod that has died on me.

Each and every one has frozen on me, will not respond to me pressing buttons, and ends up with a sadface and an exlclaimation point. Apple says "ooops, you didn't pay the $100 to pay for support of our shitty product, so you need to buy another one.

So fuck Apple. I'm buying a real product. Dell? Does MSFT have something? Proof that commie companies can't succeed in a capitalist world.

i've had the exclamation point a couple of times with mine. i was able to boot it into disk mode and from there itunes reformats it and stuff and it works fine

I can't get it into disk mode because my computer doesn't recognize it

yeah, I tried that earlier. Also didn't work.

They replaced it (again) - this is the third iPod I've had in the last year.

[HedCold]
