Why must you make it so easy to buy music?

And why Weezer, must you make such good music over and over again?

Raditude comes out today. Of course I just dl'd it from iTunes.

The ease of things has become so dangerous. Typically I would have to wait until a brick and mortar opened up but now it's as simple as sitting in front of the computer in my pajamas and a few squential clicks.

Oh and I just found out that you can buy Brian Setzer's new album "Songs From Lonely Avenue" on iTunes also. I thought it was a "Target exclusive". Right. I'm still going to get the hard copy of that one though.

These guys make some cool videos... "I Want You To"

Oh and that chick in the video is smokin'. I love the old time looks.

I had the same problem...

"oh, season 4 of The Venture Brothers, SWEET!" A few clicks and I have a season pass for the show and every Monday I have the lasted episode on my iPhone.

Yeah, it way too easy to to pickup up a good song or show...

What is this "buying" music thing? I am unfamiliar with the concept...

Am I the only one who has to use the sync feature to load anything on my device? I hate not being able to drag and drop!

There are many free 3rd party utilities to allow you to do that with your iPod.

I've done my share of warez over the years

If I like the artist I will support them. It's not an issue for me.

And another reason I love my iPhone: During my 2 and a half hour wait in my doctor's office I was able to watch some Family Guy and about an hour and a half of X-Men Origins: Wolverine (the DVD came with a digital copy).

You think iTunes is bad, have that in connection with Shazam, and iPhone, and the radio.

Driving down the road you hear a song that you dig/haven't heard in awhile but don't know the name; Shazam will ID the song on the phone, provides a direct link to Itunes on the phone, sample the track to make sure its the right one, click buy, input password, done.

Why not drag and drop using iTunes?

So far as I know, drag and drop has been eliminated. I can drag files from my music directory into iTunes, but I can't drag anything from my iTunes library onto the device. Older versions let me do it, but I guess the latest version doesn't?

Really? I had no idea.

Edit - seems to work for me. Hmm. Do you have it set to automatically sync when you plug in the iPod?

I'm with KX90, If I like the song (or show) enough to download it - I'll pay for it. Pay the artist what's due...

However, I think the artist is the last (least) to get paid.

I manually sync my iPhone. To confirm, do you have the latest version of iTunes? I just installed it a couple weeks ago, after receiving a new desktop.

I wonder also if I have to create playlists on the iPhone in order to drag and drop? I haven't had to do that in the past, though. I'll play around with it and try to figure it out.
