Or you could use Apple's iTunes as an example of how to build one of the world's worst and most user-hostile interfaces, but one that every iPhone user must deal with unless they let Apple have complete access to all their information via iCloud.

I'm convinced most people really don't like iCloud, but since the alternative is iTunes, they basically have no choice...

Agreed - I should have used a different example, as Apple is too visceral for many people.

iTunes is the equivalent of legacy VB apps in enterprises. As far as I can tell, there was essentially no design for many years.
