I entirely agree. My wife falls into the user scenario you describe. She has fully simply moved from a music world to another? She owns CDs from the past. But ripping? Not interested. She simply builds up a new library over time. How does she use the SB? She uses the Pandora channels she made me set up for her. That's all she wants: music on her iPhone, and Pandora round the house. I think only a minority of new users care or concern themselves with ripping. It is not what people do. They simply are building up new digital libraries. Oh, and I *hate* iTunes. I do not think it any more user friendly than Windows Media Player, and the way it tries to lock people in without offering tangible benefits on top (other than Apple brand religion)...
