Yeah Phil, I'm concerned a lot of people would think that way and don't
know why Apple can't see it or can't or won't do anything about it. I
can't even fetch podcasts from sites where there's an iTunes link, which
in my opinion is ridiculous!!! I've even gone to using podracer (a
command-line podcatching client) because of the limitations of
accessibility of iTunes. Yes, there is much that can be done with iTunes
if you know the tricks to employ, but frankly, the only thing I really use
iTunes for is reading books from audible.com. I'm hoping this is fixed in
Leopard; if it isn't, I think one really has to question Apple's huge
blind spot (pun intended) in this area.
That said, I love using my Mac and I'm glad I didn't decide on the basis
of iTunes
not to get one, but the inaccessibility of iTunes' application and our
inability to use the iTunes store even to subscribe to a podcast is no
small issue.
