"Apple's Worst product"
Pros
You can sync music across all Apple devices
Cons
1 Resource hungry.
2 Asks you for a huge update almost every month. Do we need so many updates ?
3 Every time you connect your iPhone/iPad to it..it halts for a minute before you can do anything. Every time you press a new tab..it again waits for a minute.
4 Sync - This is the most inscrutable button. Sometimes it copies stuff from the iPhone to iTunes (on my PC). Sometimes from my PC to the iPhone. Sometimes it deletes stuff from either !!
5 The iTunes library is impossible to manage. Impossible to export or import a song/songs from my "Music" folder into iTunes.
6 If I re-organize songs in my Music folder, iTunes retains null pointers to the old locations and creates a duplicate entry for the song.
7 In a an attempt to "manage and control" your purchased songs, iTunes sucks it it's database. I find it impossible to organize purchased songs with others in "Music" directory.Summary
It's the one piece of software that's keeping me from buying a Mac.
