yup, the iPod is perfect. never a word of troubles there.
however, your point is moot because a great number of users never have
a problem, thus never post here and give us no way of knowing any real
facts.
the rants are from people who are upset because their obsession of the
day isn't working right. I have no doubt in my mind that a fair portion
of that same crowd would also be complaining about the lack of a
release if they didn't come out at a good clip. I've been around long
enough to remember the ranting that resulted in the whole nightly build
process in the first place. That is what they are there for: users who
want the fix now can "get the latest nightly". No one holds a gun to
their head to do so. They are perfectly free to stick with the
released versions. In fact, there hasn't been a 6.3 nightly since the
release, and there are already users who are asking why not. If there
isn't a patent yet on a retroactive software release fix, perhaps
that's a good one for someone to file. Someday it might actually be
possible and you can sue them for their entire profits.
and no, I'm not expecting you to understand, care, or stop trying to
make your (I use 'you' because you are there, but it applies globally
as this is a public discussion) point over and over. just don't expect
me to convert .
if you don't like my opinion, that's ok. you don't have to.
