It sucks that *you* have had a problem, but what makes you think you
know what the overall incidence of problems is?  People don't usually
post in user forums saying "everything is running great today as usual"
(and if they did I assure you you wouldn't be able to find the problems
threads).  

Do you really think the problem rate is higher than it is with other
software like Windows or Firefox or iTunes?  I realize it's higher for
you but you are one measly person.  There are many of us who have no
problems at all with SC... ever.  Never had a single one in many years
and I'm now up to 5 SB3's and a boom.  And my non-techie wife even
loves them.  Can't say the same for Windows, Firefox, or iTunes.

(As an aside one time I changed the drive letter on my music library. 
It turns out that if you do this simple thing iTunes will crash and
NOTHING will fix it, not completely cleaning it out and reinstalling,
nothing.  Not even changing the drive letter back will fix it because
now it knows about both drive letters.  After hours of searching the
web finding many people with a similar problem and no solution I found
someone who fixed it by editing the registry and searching for every
incidence of your music folder and deleting it.  Hand editing the
registry for orphaned entries!  There's a user friendly software.  Only
other solution, probably what most non-techies would resort to, would
have been a complete wipe of the HD and reinstall of Windows.)
