Well, it's overpriced and if I have software, I really don't want to pay for a new version of it. Backwards compatibility rules, but I don't know if Apple recently started using it since that's where a lot of the flaws from Microsoft came from since they tried to make every program that worked in the past work on the new OS. I used to play Windows 3.11 games on XP.

The Ipods are decent once I got use to them. I received it free so it's not like I paid for it.

My issue is that they cost so much. I don't think 145 dollars for an Ipod Nano would be worth it.

As for sweat shops, well, it's easy for us to bitch about them because we live in a developed country. However, sweat shops can be better than the alternatives such as selling the kids and women for sex or servants where they may still be sexually abused. Eventually the workers will demand better conditions and higher pay. Then the shops will move elsewhere. That's what happened in the USA.
