Better apps such as;
Ladida, MLB at bat, ESPN Radio, Washington Post, SF4, Metal Gear
MUCH smoother
MUCH better battery life
Better music player
Better video player
Video editing (real video editing)
Best support possible (let's see you find a HTC or Motorola store)
No early obsolesence due to OS version
Is that enough?

I think I listed way more than 3....
All the apps are better. 1
The support is better. 2
The native media players are better. 3
The battery life is better. 4
The OS is much smoother. 5
Video editing. 6
No early obsolesence. 7
That's 7 right there....
I could also say; better resale value, better form, less intrusive, better quality control..... etc

What more do you want ? Besides better apps and better graphics... I said this before the iphones camera and camcorder run circles around my droid x. The droid x won't even play most of the videos recorded on my iphone 4

That's very unfriendly behavior. Just let the rabid fans in both camps froth and foam and rant. It doesn't hurt anyone, just their feelings.
And as an overall warning, swearing, insults, and flames are not allowed on this forum. Infractions will be issued if this continues. Keep it family friendly or keep it off the forum.
Also, any and ALL iPhone threads should be taken to an iPhone forum. iPhone Forum
Thank you one and all for your cooperation.

I agree with your point, but the problem is too many rabid fans in both camps and it degenerates into an insult match.
Way too many immature people online.
A better way to go about this is to ask what you can do with a jailbroken iPhone over on an iPhone forum, then researching what you can do with a rooted Android phone. There's a LOT more you can do with a rooted Android phone, BUT a jailbroken iPhone might fit the asker's needs more.
Oh, and I disagree with the iPhone doing everything better, but I don't disagree it's an incredibly solid piece of hardware and software. For a lot of people, that's enough and just what they want.
To the OP; to answer the question you actually asked, no, if you hate iTunes you're locked into using it on the iPhone, more or less, and while the benefits of jailbreaking an iPhone are numerous, it pales in comparison to what you can do with a rooted Droid. However, if you're not exploiting the full benefits of what you can do with a rooted Droid then you might be quite happy with the options for a jailbroken iPhone. Again, though, you're stuck with iTunes and the craptacular sync time 16 or 32 GB of data transfer will engender.
In the long run look at the upcoming phones in both camps and see if one fits your needs. But research! Nothing like getting locked into a long-term contract with a phone you find you hate.
