Jonathan Moeller vs. iTunes

I am pleased to report that as of this writing FROSTBORN: THE IRON TOWER has gotten to #75 on the iTunes US Epic Fantasy list, #15 on the iTunes UK list, #32 on the iTunes Australia list, and #17 on the iTunes Canada list.

Thanks, everyone!

This is particularly satisfying because I have worked in various forms of technical support for years, which means that I remember the first version of iTunes for the PC came out in 2003. Since then I may not have dealt with every conceivable iTunes malfunction, but by God I certainly have come close. Lost libraries, lost authorizations, corrupted upgrades, upgrades that wiped out music libraries, doubled files, stuttering playback, misplaced DLL files (the endless misplaced DLL files!), accidentally wiped iPods, I have seen it all.

(Also, if you are a repair technician and someone brings in their computer for service and tells you that they backed up their music library, they are lying.)

So, after eleven years of an adversarial relationship with iTunes, I am pleased and amused that it is finally working to my benefit!

Though come to think of it, most people who read iBooks likely order off their iPads or iPhones, not the iTunes desktop application. But the thought still counts. 🙂
