Nov. 18th, 2009 01:24 amDear iTunes,
You have insisted that you need to update my library, a process which, apparently, takes a while, during which I can't listen to music or do anything else in iTunes. Okay, fine. Applications require updates like that from time to time. I understand.
However!
Stealing focus from my other applications every thirty seconds (yes, I timed it) while you do this IS NOT ENDEARING. Especially when you aren't stealing focus to prompt me to do something, you're just randomly stealing focus to make me look at the progress bar crawl along a little farther. It means that not only can I not use you to listen to music, I can't do anything else while I wait to listen to music! Even typing this post is annoying, because every sentence or two iTunes opens itself over the posting window and then helpfully goes 'ding' because I'm suddenly trying to type onto the progress bar.
In conclusion: KNOCK IT OFF.
No love,
Cora
who's trying to listen to music and write, and right now, inexplicably, can't do either
People who get all smug in the comments about how this wouldn't happen if I used [insert favorite other music program here]? NOT HELPING EITHER.
