Sorry, that didn't clarify much. Is "very much so buggy as hell" or "very much so fixed"? I'm confused :(

Very much fixed. Apple doesn't ship crap software these days.

Uhm, Podcasts App? Lion?

I love both. They're incredibly polished, work fantastically, and were crafted with very fine attention to detail. Perhaps you don't like the details they focused on, fine, but if you think these are crap software, you don't know actual crap software.

I encourage you to buy a cheap consumer embedded NAS to learn.

The podcasts app doesn't even sync podcasts in ios 6 beta 2. It may be visually polished, but complete it is not in its current form.

Visually polished? They stretched a font! That’s unacceptable. A deadly sin. You don’t do that. Ever.

Podcasts is so buggy and slow on my iPhone 4 that it's literally unusable. The animations are about 7 frames per second.

If "these days" means since yesterday, sure, I'll give them a chance.

/edit to clarify, 99.9% of the software they ship has at least a few interesting bugs. Just have a look at their changelogs for 10.x.1 :-)
