Hi Howard,

:
That is why I don't have or want any Apple devices, shouldn't have to use
iTunes in order to use the device.  Apple has too much control over the
user.

KM:
I too had concerns about choosing an Apple device, but in reality I've not
found any need for Itunes.  

I did get Itunes running with my iPhone, but I've only used it once, to copy
over a homemade Ringtone and some MP3 music.

I've not used it since, as I get my music through Spotify and any file
transfer is through Dropbox.  I too don't like the Itunes concept, and I
don't really see there is any need to use it at all, apart from loading your
own music.  I'd be pleased to hear of an alternative!

It was interesting to use an Android device recently, and find out how easy
it was to copy over files and music, by connecting it to my PC as a hard
drive, but the Apple IOS experience has simply amazed me!

Best wishes, Kelvin Marsh - M0AID

My two cents worth.
