Why does iTunes insist on destroying my data?
I just purchased some audio books and am trying to download them to my iphone.
Now iTunes is threatening to wipe out everything on my iphone if I sync the audio books.
iTunes says:
"The iPhone "Sean's iPhone" is synced with another iTunes library on "SEAN-PC". Do you want to erase this iPhone and sync with this iTunes library? An iPhone can be synced with only one iTunes library at a time. Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this iPhone with the contents of this iTunes library."
Whats up with that?
Why is iTunes holding my data hostage? How is that even remotely reaonable? It is my data, not apples data. It seems it should be a criminal act for apple to erase my data without my consent. For perspective, would it be reasonable for me to demand that apple erased its servers any time I purchaced something from iTunes? Now I am forced to choose between losing the money I spent for the audio books, or losing my data that apple has no right to take. That is coersion. Is apple really this unethical? This is beyond unethical, it is insanity. What could they possibly have to gain by destroying my data? I seriously don't get it.
