I really love my iPod nano (1st gen). I also love Linux, but I’m told you don’t like the two things to live together. Fortunately, I’m also told that some good guys already worked around the protection, but still this really makes me wonder if I should keep buying your products; I didn’t know the story about DAAP and RAOP either. I’m not going to sell my nano outright, but why would I buy the new one if I can get the same functionality, minus the closeness, from my Nokia phone, for example? And I can also install any software I like on it.

Really. Your products are good. Your policy is not. Fix that, please.

Submitted this through Apple’s iPod feedback form, let’s see if I get an answer.
