  • verycooltweet lil dog (@verycooltweet) reported

    This might be controversial but musicians expecting any listener/consumer to ever want to use a “pay to play” streaming service where we pay full price for each song like iTunes ... ur out of ur fkn minds. Nobody can afford that **** and u will alienate all ur non-rich supporters

  • MeanChristian Yennifer of Vengaboys (@MeanChristian) reported

    @quincardasian I couldn't even tell you what my login for iTunes is, havent been on it for a decade, so that's hundreds of songs I technically own but dont actually because I'm basically leasing them from apple. At least with a copy I can just have it

  • nnocera2580 Nick Nocera (@nnocera2580) reported

    @72Tominator Imo Disney should drop their films on D+ no extra charge and then make it available to non subscribers for 25-30 dollars thru their service That way they don’t have to go thru a third party like ITunes... the revenue goes directly to them

  • GeeendaKid3 ThokoZaniEUGenation-P (@GeeendaKid3) reported

    @adansatekh @Lfgroleau14 @Catalin__M You can get a gift card for iTunes or google play and get the subscription from that. I know people who use HBO Max from other parts of the world. There’s no problem.

    @nicktaetro Link not working for me on itunes?

  • Gruffexterior a lonely heron (@Gruffexterior) reported

    Is any streaming service better for artists? I'm buying stuff again via iTunes anyway, but is Apple Music better than Spotify?

    am i the only person who doesn’t have a music streaming service and is still using an ipod touch and itunes to buy songs lmao

  • beethree3 νikos (@beethree3) reported

    We are not gonna lose the #1 spot on iTunes by a song called dicked down whatever. Swimming in the stars deserves to go 1 @britneyspears

  • domlovemoves domingo escudero (@domlovemoves) reported

    @nigeljbevans Can t hear nothing , is There a problem with iTunes?

  • Carlos_Vansoto Carlos Van (@Carlos_Vansoto) reported

    @xsocialopen @CAPEUSA IF this turns out to be an issue, They can literally TIMED the films once you start watching them. Like with iTunes Rents, the movie is available for 48hr once you start it. You can rewatch during that period. The movies will only be on HBO Max for 30 days so it plenty of time

  • torijacobs Tori J (@torijacobs) reported

    A guy I turned down multiple times now has a number one song on iTunes.

  • RobGaudette Rob Gaudette 🇨🇦 (@RobGaudette) reported

    @mypalsammy I disagree. Regions shut down, no major markets will have access to theatres...so what? We don’t get #WW84 in Toronto and GTA theatres until March? April? Meanwhile it’s been online in the US, in middle-America theatres and possibly on iTunes before we have access to it? Come on.

  • LadyHawkins Rachel Hawkins/Erin Sterling (@LadyHawkins) reported

    Trying to do the free trial of Apple TV to watch Ted Lasso, but now have to sign in to iTunes Store? Which I do not have and also hate? WHYYY does Apple continue to be The Actual Worst?

  • rueltdriver nahu is at the lotus inn *:・゚✧ (@rueltdriver) reported

    @jackaverymusic i saw that the duration of slow down also appears in apple itunes, are they going to surprise us with two songs? 👀

  • 123_Freakshow NotYourDoll (@123_Freakshow) reported

    Does anyone have trouble playing #SwimmingInTheStars on iTunes/Apple Music when opened on Mac? It just doesn't play for me when I open the Music app on my MAC. I play other songs without any trouble, just SIT simply doesn't play.

  • nnocera2580 Nick Nocera (@nnocera2580) reported

    @EdenThaBitch @BRobin92 @GraceRandolph Yeah that’s a great idea I think the big thing would be to try to charge non subscribers without going thru a third party service like iTunes If they did it straight through a Disney website or account they would intake the profit directly instead of thru a third party

  • RobbyLuca Robby Luca (@RobbyLuca) reported

    @Spotify A few weeks ago, ALL my synced local files disappeared from the mobile app. Now I cannot sync them back. I tried everything. Wtf am I paying for? Never had these issues with iTunes. Don't ask me to re-install the apps and reset the router. Doesn't work.

  • zlatinb Zlatin Balevsky (@zlatinb) reported

    @virus_dave @gubatron FWIW I’ve been having constant kernel panics since I updated to Big Sur. It’s an iMac so heating is not an issue. It’s gotten so bad I’m afraid to launch iTunes. I’ve isolated two main causes - Firefox opening a websocket and some internal daemon introduced in Catalina.

  • madammartha27 Mac - I’M THE MADAM (@madammartha27) reported

    @BARBRADlO i gotta get in my itunes and cut this song down myself one of these days

  • kweenofthedarnd Bobbi (@kweenofthedarnd) reported

    Can't open archived Twitter. Once got a **** ton of followers fixing to just break down. Joy! I want to open that file. No more Apple computers-Sam dangled an Air before me. I hate Apple. 3K songs gone, ID unsupported. And No purchases in iTunes, 2nd ID. 2000 songs missing.

  • IWillFollow_U2 Glécyo (@IWillFollow_U2) reported
