My favorite Itunes trick is deleting it so I can install something better, like Foobar.

Indeed.

Lots of other benefits too, such as having log files, .cue sheets for accurate burning...

Yup, only full albums for me. I don't care how bad I only want one song. It's the full album or nothing.

there's something about having to open limewire just to get 1 song. rather get the whole album

Haha, AMEN! I like Foobar, but I'm so accustomed to Winamp after 8 years, I can't part. But yea, iTunes sucks my nuts as far as SQ and ease-of-use go.

We've been over this before. He doesn't do it because he doesn't know any better //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

you know, if used to be that way. I still sorta am. But I just bought a 16GB ipod touch (w000000t!) and I want movies and pictures, so with the limited ammount of space, I'm sure as hell not gonna put songs that I don't like just so I have the full album.

But I'm putting all my music on itunes. It's not an amazing player, but I don't have many complaints about it so far. As long as it syncs up with my iPod, i don't really care.

No, I pretty much only listen to music that i feel is worth paying for. The type of music i would feel justified in stealing doesn't really interest me.

I assure you that is not the case.

i have stolen my fair share of music on ftps and irc.

I just dont do it anymore because i think it's lame if you actually like the artist and want to encourage them to continue making interesting music.

Why not download one song and put it in a playlist?
