Apple is generally known for their innovation and for designing user-friendly products ( at least they claim). They innovate complex features and forget some simple, common and must have features. I bought a iPod touch 3 months back. I was too lazy to share its review, but now im sick of their over hyped products and theirs fucking updates for which they are charge. They charge for the features which are too obvious to anyone, and give it a colour of innovation.
My friend bought a first generation iPod touch. He was slapped by apple on both the cheeks for purchasing apple product. They added new features to second generation iPod touch and reduced its price by 70$, they should have at least given a hint of what’s coming up. They are not some secret service or a defense organization. Give some value to your customers, why did my friend pay you extra 70+10 dollars??
I hate apple because..
- Their products are over hyped.
- Overpriced.
- There’s no search feature in iPod touch, you don’t expect me to scroll through 30 gb of songs to find a song I’m looking for. They introduced this feature in 3.0, for which I have to pay 10 USD. Congratulations for this great innovative idea of adding a search function, listening music on iPod is more fun now. FYI, my Nokia n70 had this feature long long back.Symbian operating knew this feature since it early days, may be you missed it innovating complex things.
- Now you can cut and paste on your iPod touch and iPhone. That’s a great feature, you guys really rock. yaaaaay apple rocks.
- There is no microphone, fm radio and Bluetooth on my iPod.
- You cannot send mms, cannot capture video on your iPhone, no cut and paste until the recent update. What are you people doing? What are you innovating?
- They invented the “in ear” headphones which are priced at 79 USD. Well i think you people should check what other people in the market are doing, you get these inear headphones on most models of Sony Ericsson phones at no extra cost.
- Honestly, audio quality is a lot better on Sony Ericsson mobile phone with in ear earphones than a iPod.
- I cannot use my iPod touch as a usb drive. Even my n70 can be put in mass storage mode.
- I cannot edit playlists are save playlists on my iPod touch except for the one “on the go” playlist.
- They annoy me with their reminders on software updates, and force me to dlaod them
- I cannot install the update on my ipod unless i update my itunes. I have the version jut previous to the latest one.
- There is a pdf reader in iPod, but i cannot load my pdfs into it, WTF.
- I cannot associate my iTunes account with more than five pcs, WTF. I format my pc very frequently. According to them if i format my pc more than 5 times, I should get a new iTunes account and buy all the apps again. I don’t have gold mines dude. Why don’t you just give a number to my ipod and associate with my iTunes account? It’s not common that people have a more than 5 ipods.
- You cannot copy your music from your iPod to another pc, same is the case if your pc crashes. You should either lose your music collection on the ipodTouch are purchase a third-party software to rip the music.
- You cannot mute the songs from your earphone. If someone is talking to you then, you have to pull out the ipodtouch from your pocket, press the home button, then the music icon and then pause.
There still a lot more to say and the list would be endless if start about all the other apple products. If you have anything to say please feel to drop in, i will append them to the above list.
I even quit the idea of buying a mac book after i bought the iPod Touch, I would rather go for a vaio, dell or Toshiba laptop with windows 7.
Mac is a museum with beautiful walls, you don’t get to touch anything. Your hands are tied, so it’s the same every day. But a PC is a workshop with lot of tools, and you have a complete control over your pc.
Listen Mac lovers, you claim that macs are stable. They are stable because you cannot try anything new, you do what it commands you to do. Your hands are tied if you use an apple product.
You know, a soap-bubble can last for years if left undisturbed??











QQ Moar bro, QQ Moar
dude buy your music like the rest of the fucking world instead of limewire and maybe youll experience how apple designed it
you fail man, you fail hard
plz gouge out your eyes and jump off a cliff
if you would get off your lazy fat ass and learn how to use a fucking mac maybe youd be a better person. pc’s are like wemen on their periods, touchy, never makes up its mind wether its gonna load your software and just a pain in the ass. macs are like men, nuff said…
your a cunt dude…plz return your walmart deploma and go back to fucking preschool(most are on macs these days btw)
and btw your still fail and your parents hate you
Love, Dad
I stumbled across this article and felt the need to reply to “Steve”. I know a lot of people who are huge music fans, and are always listening to and downloading music. Rightly or wrongly, none of them pay for it. Just thought i’d make the point that “the rest of the fucking world” DON’T pay for music anymore, I cannot remember the last time I met anybody that did.
Hey dumbass, your telling his to “return his walmart deploma”???
YOU FUCKING SPELT DIPLOMA WRONG NUMBNUTS, YOU GO BACK TO FUCKING PRESCHOOL. Fucking retard.
guess what? your a fucking lame ass retard. who the fuck want’s to pay for music anyways? and you don’t use limewire you use demonoid or some other torrent site. macs are fucking lame…
nuff said:)
Yes i agree with these reasons.

Quit your fucking whining. iPod touch is amazing.I was gonna buy a netbook with my silver that I invested a while back (yes I did make a profit) but I decided that since I’m out alot and taking the bus all the time, it’s better to have something you can hide in your pocket that having some big netbook out in the open for any thug to try and take from you. PCs might be better for some things but my iPod touch I can hide so no one mugs me.
Nice list but you forgot one thing, the fans.
I hate apple because of the fans.

yeah same here, i’m a linux user and the mac fan guys are too irritating to bear, cultic, irrationally proud of their shit white things, isnt mac a computer? i guess they aren’t owning a spaceship………………………..
Ipod touch is the best and i want it sooooooooooooooooooo bad
I suggest that you send your good article at the Feedback page at http://www.apple.com/feedback/ . For the iPod Touch, it is at http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipodtouch.html .
Contrary to Microsoft, they do listen carefully to the feedback that they receive. Microsoft does not have a feedback page!!
That hurt apple .. i Love it
Honestly, ipod touches are just for people who want to be in the “cool” group at their school. That’s all it is, freakin peer pressure, and none of you can deny it. It’s the whole “Well, everyone has one, so I should get one”, you’re all freakin sheeps.
And yes
I’m a troll
and I’m a “fag”
and I’m freakin stupid
and I’m not cool
There, no need to spam this message now saying I’m all of that. I hate apple, and I always will.
ZUNE HD FTW!!!!!!!!!
Open your minds a bit and see apple sucks, stop trying to be cool.
Look at all these stupid preteen Mac fans. The guy above me doesn’t even have an ipod touch, but he still supports it. They crash ALL the fucking time. I’ve spent time learning to use a Mac, it sucked and is not as great as a REAL PC. I’ve found the images very funny because it’s very true. Just let these stupid Mac fans with whatever they say, but only kids use Macs. They’re also probably in some type of special education unfortunately.
3 words man: W T F
You REALLY need to get out more. Ever heard of jailbreaking? Huh? Do have ANY experience with hacking? HUH? Do you know the non-biased differences between a Mac and a PC? HUH?? Do I say “huh” a lot? HUH!!!???
Mac are overpriced, overrated, over advertized, and eventually over my balcony. Nothing but trouble. Been giving them a chance over the ten years since my first one, same results. They are designed as eye candy and nothing more. They seems to always be one step behind when it comes to hardware, but the price is doubled… I don’t get it.
I was so unimpressed with them, a new MacBook Pro came into my hands from a friend , I gave it away…didn’t want the headaches. Supposedlytheir flagship laptop. Gimme a Toshiba toughbook and I would have been in heaven.
One good thing about MAC..there’s never a problem when it comes to surfing the net and having my personal settings changed like on a windows box. But is it worth the pricetag…..nope…dual boot with Linux and cut the cost by 75%.
Apple has less then 4% of the computer marker, PC has the rest. I wonder why.
You really have to be a brainwashed fool that does not know anything about computers to decide to buy anything apple. Those who do are people that fall for advertisements and believe the lies with in them.
Mobile music is the trend nowadays, it makes sense to have great music on your mobile phone.;–
