    money within the music industry has literally reduced the worth of music to atoms. it was records/cds - 10-20 bucks... apple came up w/ itunes, singles went down to .99 cent (not even a dollar), but now with streaming its like 0.003%? which is crazy insane

    @AppleMusic @Sonos Tracks that have been uploaded using the iTunes Match service display the error but other songs won’t play either despite everything being fine before. I can get around this playing via Airplay or deleting from my library and re-adding from Apple Music.

    @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.

    @avilla01_ @DAZNBoxing I receive email receipts from Apple/iTunes whenever a purchase is made. There’s a link in the email to report a problem. I reported it yesterday and had the refund this morning. Then canceled DAZN.

    First, some context. By early 2004, the iPod had become the world's most popular music player. Over 2 million units sold. 30 million songs downloaded from iTunes. But Apple faced a massive problem:

    @grantdfindlay @ljin18 The issue is price. CDs no matter the quality are $10. iTunes tracks are $1. NFTs have an insane range and that range is always changing so anyone can see the possibility of buying low and selling high.

    @n1g4tt4 Every time I try to run the tool, I get the following error on Windows 10 — even though I have the latest version of iTunes installed: Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E The specified module could not be found ('iTunesMobileDevice.dll') How can I fix this?

    $SPOT Think back to when Spotify was just that small music app fighting against iTunes and trying to make streaming a thing. Fast forward to now, and they've built this massive platform with close to 700 million users. The wild part? All those risky moves they made with podcasts, AI, and ads are actually working out. They're not content being just a music service anymore. Spotify wants to dominate everything you listen to, and they're making it happen. Their latest move with AI-powered advertising is pretty smart—small businesses can now create their own ads without breaking the bank. That means more revenue coming in beyond what we pay for Premium. What strikes me most is how devoted their users are. While $AAPL and $AMZN treat music like just another feature in their massive ecosystems, Spotify really nails the personal touch. Their recommendations feel like they're reading your mind, and they actually support creators in meaningful ways. That's why people stick around, especially the younger crowd that discovered music through the app. The tech giants are still trying to muscle in, and ad revenue isn't always predictable, but Spotify's position is way stronger—debt-free with solid cash flow.

    remember when you could buy music videos on itunes? $1.99, yours forever. I played the ones I paid for. now i’m just waiting— to see if UMG forgets we had a contract. what happens if they take down what I own?

    @myyoutae Not necessarily. A lot depends on how much of the gp use a streaming service, and how consistent they are. In this case, it's even different: iTunes chart is impacted by sales, something that Spotify doesn't do

    @NekoMichiUBC I always install the iOS or iPadOS beta on the day of release just for fun. However, I don't recommend it for anybody's main device, or for anybody who can't troubleshoot tech issues. I once had to restore an iPad through iTunes due to a charging issue in a beta...

    @Miyakoottv Since the first-generation Apple TV cannot log into the iTunes servers as of 2018, it's completely useless today unless you hack an alternative OS onto it. Running Leopard, the Apple TV is a surprisingly stable and capable cut-down Mac.

    @taetan77 Billboard, itunes, numerous records on spotify plus his numbers are great, has charting albums in so many countries around the world and I could keep going on but just go back to your main and stop talking about hoseok instead of trying to bring him down

    @Dishasatra Solution is to create a virtual location in some other drive where you have space and provide that location to iTunes. I recently faced the same problem.
