			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="clear: both">About my recent experience with them when I sent my iPod in. Luckily, they have a section for comments. I doubt that anyone actually reads the damn things, but here is my response to them:</p>
<blockquote style="clear: both"><p>The issues for iPods only include some very generalized issues that your customers may be experiencing. My issues was not available in the 4 options, and therefore I had to use a non-standard method of describing my problem by selecting button issues then using the &#8220;what steps have you taken to resolve&#8221; section to attempt to describe the problems I am still experiencing.<br />
Because of the lack of an &#8220;Other, Please Describe&#8221; option, I have no way of being certain if anyone actually read the issue I described. Every subsequent email I received from Apple did not contain the comments I included.<br />
When Apple received my product, they informed me they could not replicate my problem. Was this button issues, or the random track skipping and random resetting I am still experiencing?<br />
Your support has not been beneficial and I feel as if I have wasted my time with them and money with your product.</p></blockquote>
<p style="clear: both">Fucking  asshats.</p>
<p>UPDATE for anyone who cares, I was in Columbus this past weekend, where they have an Apple Store, and was able to get my iPod swapped out for a new at no charge to me.  Go  Genius Bar.</p>
