Yeah iTunes makes transfering libraries or switching PCs unnecessarily tedious. I've had a lot of problems with it. I also think Apple's product decisions (hard- and software-wise) are becoming more dubious, which is why I was looking to switch. Privacy and security still outweigh it by a wide margin which is why I won't switch for now. As for the MP3 problem: There are 3rd party apps, where you can simply drag the files into the iTunes window and they'll sync without hassling much with iTunes.
