One of my main reason for using Android is I hate being forced to use iTunes to update and sync.

One, it has one of the worst UI for device managers (was designed manage music), and it's a very unpleasant experience for me every time I am forced to use it to manage my idevices.

Two, it had wiped out everything in my iphone one time I try to sync it to a new computer. To me, the word "sync" means to update devices so that the data missing from the other device gets synced. No way would I have second guessed it would wipe out data from the device. So every time I use iTunes to sync, I get super nervous.

With Android, I can just navigate my device as if it's just an external drive when I plug it into my computer(a Mac).

iTunes is just the opposite of Apple's "it just works" motto.
