This is kind of important.

There's a good article here explaining it; it applies to all Apple IDs, so yes, if you use iTunes, you should read this:

I agree with this in so many ways. However all I can think of is the angry customer who never remembers their passwords. or the parents of said customers. urg.

Still I like the fobs more than a code from a phone. No real reason why...I just prefer my fobs.

Augh but fobs suck. So easy to lose.

I guess from my POV, it's so easy to misplace keys, but I don't often misplace my phone, and when I do, it's so much easier to locate it. Adding yet another piece of hardware into the mix is trouble.

I never keep my fobs with my regular keys. Usually they are tied to things or locked away till needed. Many of them are pretty have art on them...why yes, I like the pretty sparkle. Especially some of my game ones.

I like the pretty but phone app is convenient for on the go.
