This is the #1 reason why I don’t buy Apple anymore. But if there was an easy private way, I’d be open to getting Apple products again.

I simply want to transfer files from my PC to my iPad without any companies collecting info about the files, such as legally acquired mp3 files that dumb corporations will think are pirated.

What are the ways to do this?

    Okay. What about Linux to iPad? I have a dual boot with Linux set up, and it’s not like Microsoft can read all your files in your computer yet. If you have evidence to the contrary, please let me know.

      Do you ever just try things on your own and then reach after you have a legitimate question from the experience?

      We’re talking about something that takes 5 seconds.

      Yes, you can copy files from Linux to an iOS device.

        I’ve tried it, albeit several years ago when things were different.

        Other people might have the questions that I do, and putting the information in a publicly accessible forum is a good idea to preserve that information.
