Drag and drop is overrated tbh, seems like way too much effort when you have loads of music

Syncing with iTunes is , I add extra music/films/TV/Podcasts to iTunes (my convertor app automatically adds them to my library, awsm rite?), and they automatically end up on my iPod when I charge it

Syncing > Drag + drop unless you a) have a tiny capacity player or b) have like, no music

Because being locked to software is awesome.
The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

iTunes works very well for me (syncs my entire library of music + films + podcasts + TV + updates it), theres always Winamp or the Linux alternatives if I fancy being a pretentious faggot, why should I bother with drag and drop when it's extra effort to make all my playliists into .m3u when they already work with iTunes, which I prefer to the alternative media players?

GG using it somewhere where you have no access to installing programs.

You're vaguely dismissing all my points in a very non-persuasive way.

Wtf? O wait, you mean using it on a computer where I can't install a program which can manage my musics. Well nou, it's easy if you're not retarded and the admins are:

(ignoring the fact that if you can't install programs at that location, you're also unlikely to have any music there either)

1) Any sensible admin will block USB as well as installing stuff (such as at my school for example), so drag and drop wouldn't work either
2) Any sensible admin will block media files being downloaded (this is also the case at my school), so drag and drop won't help you there either
3) If you have access to the CD drive, Hiren's Boot CD -> Remove admin password -> Install Programs
4) If USB works, change Boot order in BIOS and boot to a live usb-stick version of linux and use the linux utilities

tl;dr fail point is fail, Drag and Drop is only superior when you have retarded admins

Are you fucking serious? Oh god, drag and drop is so much effort, I'll go in to the bios, change the boot order, use a boot CD, of which I have to make and carry around with me on top of my MP3 player!

Oh god, drag and drop is so much effort, I'm going to try manually managing my music. Oh god, I'm reversing my argument every 3 lines.

Seriously, what the hell are you trying to say?

I don't really get the drag and drop thing: iPods support both drag and drop and syncing in the native iTunes program as well as through 3rd-party softwares like WinAmp. I have to rely on drag and drop selections because my library exceeds my iPod size... which automatically creates an 'iPod Selection' Playlist, which if left to auto-sync just seems to randomly and pointlessly put any old random songs on the drive.

The idea is that it doesn't require software, it just interfaces like any other USB memory. What's good is that any respectable media player can interface with it, all it needs is a directory and it copies folders/files in to it. However, if you don't want or the situation doesn't permit, just plug it in.

You basically mean like a flash drive?

I'm not going to discredit or disown my iPod simply because I have to drag and drop the mp3 files from a software library into a software folder, rather than from a Windows directory into another Windows directory. Boohoo. It's the exact same action fundamentally, it drags from one location and it drops to another. iPods have the simple file-transfer hard-disk mode if that's what you're interested in... as far as the media side of things goes, I don't really find much to complain about in the use of software.
