This is the third time now that my iPod (5G, iPod with Video) has magically corrupted itself. People expressed skepticism before, so I've attached a screenshot this time.
To couple with this glorious occasion, twice today iTunes has cleared my library (thankfully leaving my physical files unaffected, just forcing me to re-import my library). When I hook up the iPod (which has an identical library to the one in iTunes), it informs me that apparently this iPod is from another computer! So it wants to delete everything and re-transfer it all over. Deleting one library, then replacing it with an identical one. It's done this twice today.
For the life of me, I can't see any rhyme or reason behind this. iTunes appears to be sloppy somewhere and ends up corrupting my iPod's database (this time, though, the iPod can read it and play music fine? iTunes just thinks it's someone else's iPod)...
You'd think something of such importance and such simple design, they'd get their **** together. This is awful.
