The first and last time I installed iTunes was probably 15 years ago. It started importing my files. "Fine", I thought, "it's creating some internal database of my files. Oh neat it's downloading meta-data." Then I realized, to my horror, it was also renaming/retagging files and directories in it's own format. All of my music was in a consistently named and categorized file structure of my own devising, having been mostly ripped from CDs I owned and then tagged and filed by hand. Down the details of track filenames and ID3 titles having consistent casing. All of that was trashed by iTunes. The hate I feel, to this day, for that software has no equal in decades of computer experience.
