[SurroundSound] Re: Dolby TrueHD upscaling

I believe iTunes is much improved in recent incarnations, but I took a
dislike to it years ago, mostly for it's 'lock you in' approach, but
I also dislike all lossy files anyway.
I expect iTunes, as a way of storing/cataloging and playing a limited
range of files is very good, but it is limited in it's range and
although less 'locked in' than it used to be, still sucks from that
point of view.
I don't really trust them to redeem themselves 100%. So for me iTunes
never gets installed on my HDD, not for many, many years now. It's a
personal boycott if you like.
