It works great - until it doesn't, and then you find all your music is deleted or something [0] They don't exactly have a stellar record on this sort of thing.

  One random user? Which they officially acknowledged even? This might be a less than a stellar record, but not because of that link.

    That was just the first link from a Google search. Internet forums are full of other users complaining of the same problem. Even if it only affects 0.1% of users, multiply that by the tens of millions, and that's a large number of people having a horrible experience. It works great for you, until you're in the 0.1% then it's a bitch. Edit: and it's not just music, it's a mulit-year history of botching up sync across multiple different technologies - some of which I've experienced first hand, some of which I've had friends complain of. Either way, Apple have zero credibility with me and syncing.

        Schadenfreude is not a problem solving strategy.

    10-12 years ago (wow...), stories like that were a lot more common. I lost thousands of MP3s to iTunes on my first Mac, a PowerBook 17.

    Happened to me and many people I know. It's a very widespread issue.
