I never owned an apple product because of their "killing batteries from afar" fiasco. Once I saw Tim Apple giving trump little golden trinkets on television I knew my decision was right. It reminded me of putting money in the collection plate.
For me it was "forced integration of your music library with Apple music" when the ipod was all the rage.
That was the death knell for me as well. I think it was around when I had my last iPod, the... Nano?
