Best for WHO? Certainly not my wife. iTunes is the perfect interface for
her. Same goes for my kids who have iPods. Oh yeah, and for me. Why
would I want to mess around with drag and drop when a simple, clean
interface is available? I have my iPod connected to my Linux box and I
used to use GTKpod and now use Banshee. Why? Because it's a heck of
a lot easier to sync my playlists, etc, using the GUI tools rather than
trying to drag and drop my 6,000 songs!!!!
Fine. You want drag and drop. Great. Most people don't. Get over it.
