Will someone please explain how drag and drop is easier than itunes?

I genuinelly dont get it please lay it out simple for me.

As i see it on both systems it would go like this.

1st stage - Get media onto PC/Mac etc
option 1 -rip a CD, either way this requires opening and running a piece of software inserting a disc and pressing go.
option 2 - download from an online store, either way this requires opening software(maybe a browser or iTunes)

Result - A digital file is now on the PC/Mac

2nd stage - get digital file onto device
Plug in device -
Itunes would then auto open and I would drag the music from the library to the icon representing my player iTunes will manage and look after what folder etc it foes on, this is literally 1, plug in device 2,drag files onto device icon.
UMS Double click on players drive icon to open folder, now normally then navigate to the folder actual music is in(eg most music wont be dropped on the top level of the file system) open place music was saved to, do drag and drop.

Now the iTunes option seems easier to me? can anyone explain why its not?

oh and consider dropping say you favourite 20 new tracks each from a different artist onto a player in itunes I hold down ctrl and scroll down the list whilst clicking on them and then drag them all to iPod.
Using UMS id need to open at least 20 folders and do 20 seperate drag and drops.


Im confused as to how anyone could suggest UMS is easier ESPECIALY for the non tech savvy user.

Anyone?[
