For all the love Apple gets from it's fanbase, it's truely undeserving of it. Some of apple's policies are down right draconian. If Microsoft pulled the crap they did, Microsoft would be getting bent over a table by Anti-Trust suits.

For example.

I can only use iTunes to load music onto my ipod. Other 3rd party MP3 players allow for USB connections and 3rd party softwares.

Apple includes additional software in it's updates. The infamous Safari-bundled with quicktime and itunes updates.

Apple Patent Mongering.

Itune's online store carries different music prices in different regions. In fact, the EU is on their *** about it.

Songs purchased on itunes may not work on anything but an ipod. A known anti-competitive practice once used with juteboxes and IBM used with system mainframes and microsoft used with servers.

Apple Lisa pricing. If you bought one, you know what I'm talking about.

iPhone is restricted to 3rd party developers, locking out independent programmers and businesses.

Many key software packages that run on apple products can only be obtained from apple or apple-owned subsidiaries.

I can go on.
