How exactly is that "assumed?" Particularly in Apple's "we don't need no steenking dialog boxes" mentality, there's no warning about the consequences. > the music is still on the computer, the only thing that's lost is the > list of what's copied to the iphone. you'd need to recreate the > selection of songs.
