Joe writes the iPod and iTunes suffer from vendor lock-in, that iTunes 
doesn't support other jukebox players. Seems a bit strange to me 
considering that iTunes works with SonicBlue, CreativeLabs, Nike, and 
Nakamichi mp3 players, and has since it's version 2 release.

.... the iPod... which we
all know has other vendor lock-in problems (ahem... the battery,
lack of support in iTunes for other jukeboxes, etc.)). -Joe
