It seems to have a lot of great features, but once you start using it you'll notice many bugs and GUI problems. I guess this should have been a sign.

I only needed it to transfer some songs off my iPod and was happy to find I could transfer my entire iPod with the trial version! Once I transfered all my songs iTunes froze. After force quitting it I tried again and it still froze. After a while of troubleshooting I've found that plugging in my iPod now causes iTunes to freeze. Occasionally I can get iTunes to recognize the iPod without it freezing but it instantly freezes once syncing starts (or updating, or restoring, or basically doing anything related to the iPod)
