Alternative to iTunes?

[kermitology]

Hi all,

I'm currently getting very frustrated with iTunes. I think with every release of that turd of a program it becomes more bloated, slower, and more full of useless crap that makes my life slow down.

Anyways, I love my shuffle, but I'm having a hell of a time getting files transferred these days. Ever since I updated to the latest iTunes version I can't get anything to load worth crap.

Anyone know an alternative to iTunes for loading songs onto and iPod?

You can get a plug in for winamp that works pretty good ... I've been using that for the last few months.. it gives you a little bit more control over the ipod

I started using it because someone on here recommended it in another thread about itunes alternatives.. I did a quick search but wasn't able to find the thread though
