so it all stars when...

Christmas comes along, and i wonder what im going to buy my older sister who is in fourth year university, i thought jewlery, but she just got her x-ring, so i couldnt top that. so i decided to be generic and bought her a 32gig ipod touch (the new ones.) she didnt have one so she was ecstatic. Anyway, we get home from my cottage (where we spent xmas) and back to civilization and she plugs in her ipod and she sees that she needs a new version of itunes for her ipod to work. No biggie right? 
wrong. turns out for this itunes to work she needs the new apple os (what the fuck?... why? is there actually a solid reason or is apple just being a dick) so she has to buy the new apple operating system so that she can use her fucking ipod. How does this make any sense?! her mac is only 4 years old this year. (she got it before going off to university and she is in 4th year now.)  HOW CAN I FIX THIS (without putting music on from a different computer. cause we all know how much of a hassle that is)
<bot>: apple is making my sister buy a new operating system (hers is only 4 years old) so that she can have the itunes, so that she can put music onto her ipod.
