Itune's bad because it does way too much. I've lived in Apple's ecosystem for years and sometimes I can't tell if I'm looking at my music on my connected Ipad, on my mac, or on their store... And they change the "purchased" playlist every release too... It's a hot mess... The interface is awful, does too much and nothing well, kinda like a swiss knife...
I wish they'd separate Iphone/Ipad management and music player completely. I'm currently looking for apps that replace itunes altogether but deal with its library. There's a market for these, as several exist on the Mac that upsample too, and I'm leaning towards Stezza for the Ipad I use as a stereo - nicer simpler interface. $1.99 ! Kinda sucks you have to buy something to fix their mess but it's the price of 1.5 song...
If anyone has other recommendations, I'm all ears... I just had to buy another utility to export entire catalogs to formats that play in my wife's car, too. Itunes couldn't do it quickly but that utility scripted it and automated the process... It's got power but that interface is an embarassment !
