Although I don't have a lot invested in iTunes besides apps (music can migrate to whatever platform since the fall of DRM, and I don't buy movies), the "hassle" of starting on a new system was why I simply went with Apple on my last upgrade in the fall of 2011. A younger version of myself would have loved the thought of starting over with Android, learning a new OS, etc. But the early-thirties version of me, with a baby born right around the same time, simply couldn't be bothered. Plug it in, everything is there, etc.
My next phone will probably be a Google Nexus, primarily because I want to buy it outright and unlocked, and I can't justify what Apple sells their unlocked phones for. Plus I'm a little more willing and able to learn Android than I was a few years back. I do love how my Apple TV and iPad play together, but my phone has always been a bit more of an independent device.
