I'll say this. And this is the Gods honest truth. Never once have I had to use iTunes (and you know how I detest that thing) with my iPad. I suppose I will need it for an OS update (yes I know 5.11 is out lol, but I aint doin it) one day, but times have changed.
All is good on the iCloud lmao

so, I suppose I have kinda accepted it more.
Anything that saves me from putting that crap on any PC is good, so far...Even when my first iPad had that faulty screen, back up to iCloud, get new device, download settings from iCloud, no need for iBloatTunes! Not once have I had this device connected to any PC, which is great in my books

and a step in the right direction as far as I think Apple should go.
The cloud is scary, but it can have its uses, more so if you have nothing to hide
