  itunes is separate to apple music and isn’t a streaming service at all so you can buy through there even if you’re streaming on spotify! if you are using apple music though then make sure to delete LD from your library before streaming again!

  @FikirtemariamG a hero was walking around the merch line offering cash to US people to buy on Haegeum on Itunes and they turned her down "we stream" and "I don't use iTunes" :(

  My speaker jack is doing that thing where it opens up iTunes without you asking it to and yesterday it did it while I was giving a presentation. I'm fast now tho so shut it down while it was still in the first bell of Hell's Bells. 🫢

  @ibuildthecloud Stuff like the Newton is the obvious counterexample, but for a more modern example -- iTunes was apocalyptically bad for a very long time. For a more spicy take -- the iPhone was basically a toy until iPhone 5 (or 4, if you ignore the reception issues). A very Vista/7 dynamic.

  iOS App Store + itunes store was too powerful. And it wasn’t a good media player. At the time it had to replace your iPod so it needed to be powerful for music too imo And i recall various hardware issues (mainly slow) and being exclusive to just Sprint back when switching carriers was a huge hassle

  has anyone else run into an issue where the macOS music app (aka iTunes) just skips to the end of mp3s? i'm losing my mind because it's happening for the tracks on my last album and the files play fine everywhere else

  first of all, I'm so sorry I had to tell this and might be cancelled too. but, I can't prevent anyone to buy haegeum and DDay tracks on itunes, BUT this kinda alarming because jm solos team up to put down haegeum :') so you know what to do.

  @Gammitin You technically don't own the music on a CD you buy, either And I technically don't own the hypothetical stash of music that I got off Limewire back in the day I'm not a fan of iTunes (or whatever it's called these days), but it's not like it's just a streaming service

  i’m not confusing anything! okay so for example, the banned from no remix, because that’s been causing discourse within the fanbase. sure, it went #1 on itunes due to the barbz’s support, but it tanked in streaming bc the gp didn’t know/care about it to listen to it. this is where the problem lies. we all know barbz are gonna defend nicki down. but who’s gonna carry the success of her music? bfn remix didn’t even have enough points to have her credited on the song. what’s gonna happen when she drops nm6 and it tanks bc only a handful of people are buying it on mf itunes?

  @HSajwanization TBH Apple has never been very good at software. iTunes has sucked for years. Phone updates regularly have problems.

  @VeritasKnight i could list up a quick "introductory best-of" half-dozen, just to find out if it'd be your style or not. i mean there are a few terrible episodes, and bad luck could pick a stinker... i *think* it's available on any of Amazon, iTunes, Roku, and Tubi

  @Mangalawyer Don't expect Microsoft to do better on PC. Oh, wait—they are never better at all. Even I can not be sure if it is Microsoft or Apple's problem with iTunes being unable to code CD songs into iPhones.

  So weird, listening to a Haegeum focused playlist on AM from my Apple TV iTunes music app and it’s skipping all the Haegeum. When I try clicking on Haegeum on the playlist it just skips to the next song. Anyone else notice this issue with AM?
