Apple has been so disappointing as they have repeated Sony's mistake about obsessively locking down their products. The iPod on its own is a great product. The software support for it is horrible and Apple has made it incredibly difficult to use anything but iTunes to manipulate the music stored on MY FREAKIN DEVICE. iTunes does not offer the features and abilities I want and I have always found it to be unstable on every system I have put it on.
Have you used iTunes? Have you used Sonic Stage? I have used both, and in comparison with Sonic Stage's depths of hell, iTunes is blissful heaven filled with nubile servants.
However, my opinion is but an anecdotal contradiction to your anecdotal evidence. Meh.
