    I honestly don’t get why people use apple. People have explained it to me and I think I just don’t get the reasoning.

    People would tell me on the age of illegally downloaded or someone legally bought mp3s apple was better because you can’t play your mp3s you have to buy them again off apple. Or that apple is better because you can’t use something and instead have to use apples device which isn’t as good and more expensive but it’s white! Like I can’t get a fucking white one.

    The walled garden is shit. Apple makes me angry.

      Idk why people told you that but it’s never been true. iPods didn’t give a shit where the mp3 came from, only that it was loaded via iTunes.

        I dunno maybe my friends were too stupid to manage it.

        But I got told you couldn’t get it on there and you couldn’t get it off their.

        I didn’t see the point. Didn’t seem like owning it, seemed like apple owned it.
