sharepod to replace iTunes

iTunes is too bulky to manage ipod songs.  I have now changed to sharepod, small file size, just 5MB file size plus the interface is neat and clean.  


Another headache of iTunes is that if some songs in a PC's folder  are inadvertently deleted, iTunes attempts to delete the same songs in ipod because of auto-sync.  No such hassle in sharepod. 


The only shortcoming is that I have to connect ipod to sharepod if I want to listen to music through  my PC.
