I agree. IMHO iTune is definitely a poor excuse for something that would be better run with tabs in a browser but I'm more concerned with things like the Apple Watch application or The Weather Channel that I can't remove from my iPhone.

The non-removable Apple apps on iOS that exist only to up-sell other Apple "value add" services like Newsstand, Apple Watch, iBooks, Game Centre even iCloud to lesser extent are far more annoying to me.
