problem exists between keyboard and chair

I completely lose at adding music to iTunes libraries.

I refuse to believe that this is a problem with me and not a problem with iTunes' UI.

Pay no attention to the fact that Apple is trying to reach the lowest of low common denominators, the non-technical technology consumer. Nope, they just suck.

wtf, techhology, ux, frustrations, mac

Oh, amen. I can't stand iTunes: it was one of the biggest reasons I switched back to using a PC.
What time/where did you want to get together tomorrow (assuming you haven't been eaten by iTunes, that is)?

Oh, ouch. Personally, I love most aspects of OSX (though on my personal laptop I'm still running 10.3.9, since I haven't found that many compelling reasons to upgrade) but we have to use iTunes for music at work.

I could meet you at 11 or so. I'm pretty open as to where; am coming from Capitol Hill, and busing, so places in the Cap Hill -> U-District axis are preferred. What do you and tallin and le Boy like to do?

And arjache expressed a bit of interest in meeting up, too.

Yay, that sounds fun. :-)
We could do food-and-park-going (everyone likes food of some type and there are a bunch of parks around). Does that work for you? Or if it's raining we could always hit one of the local pools, if you're into that.

I am into that, yeah.

Call me tomorrow and we'll figure out where to meet, based on weather and collective mood? 206-992-7683.

Can't you use xmms or some other *nix media player instead? iTunes is not forced upon you...

I am weak in the *nix-fu, sadly. :P

It is, though... I was trying to add stuff to the playlist on the music server at work, where the administration isn't up to me.
