4 Reasons Why I Hate iTunes/iTunes Store

Reason 1. "I Hate iTunes" Because Sync is User UN-Friendly

For many new iPhone/iPad/iPod touch users, using iTunes to sync data can be a difficult task. They don't know how to start to transfer files/data between computer and their iOS device with iTunes. One user said in Apple forum, you have to spend a lot of time to read related Apple Support posts to learn how this managing software works.

And the fact is that you wouldn't like to read iTunes instruction until you lose something on iOS device or face some other tough problem when using iTunes to sync. Some users think it's not users' fault, but the iTunes itself – It is an application with a complicated process to sync and the sync is one-way (computer to device).

Reason 2. "I Hate iTunes" Because Unreasonable/Improper Charges

Reason 3. Payment Info Needed When Firstly Using iTunes Store

You have to add your payment info to your Apple account when you use Apple ID to login iTunes store and download apps at the first time, which people think is useless and time-wasting if they just want to download some free apps. Although Apple offered ways to remove payment information in iTunes, the process seems a little complicated and some users said they couldn't see and select the item "None" to remove their credit card detail in iTunes.

Only Apple can set up the process to download free apps without payment info. What you can do now is just to remove your Apple ID payment info in iTunes after your downloading.

Reason 4. "I Hate iTunes" Because It Has Bad Customer Support

There is no available phone number Apple officially offers for its users to directly get iTunes support. If you have questions about iTunes, you have to category your question by yourself and find the suitable solutions on official site. Some users said they have to wait for a long time to have their questions or issues dealt with by iTunes support center.
