    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?

    So far, Apple Music/iTunes is still bloatware with a terrible interface and broken functionality. Sad. #WWDC25

    his very own company stopped his promotions just 10 days into its release and focused everything on another member, billboard changed rules last minute to sabotage his success and his own company stayed silent for weeks.. not to forget that they took the album down from itunes

    @Grummz If I can figure out a way to mix Android with macOS (Apple TV movies and iTunes), then I can see jumping. Problem is Google is Android, or it was. Like I said, need to research.

    False. Music “purchased” through iTunes, you’re not buying the music itself, you’re buying a license to use the music. While it has the illusion of ownership, you don’t actually own it, ie you need to sign in and authorize your computer for the music files to work, you are limited to burning the songs to disc 7 times total, songs not downloaded or backed up can disappear if the content right holders pull their license with Apple, not allowed to sell or trade or anything beyond personal use with the music, etc.

    @1nnermoonch1ld ive had no problem buying from there before (i bought jp itunes giftcards) but that's just my experience

    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?

    Math aint mathing...... Alone 2M+ streams hours ago so possibly 2.25M-2.5M Globally so probably around 1.25M-1.5M from US now with barely any playlisting & it went down another spot on iTunes and iTunes is originally where we get Nicki doing numbers solo & collabs 😞

    @MaccabiTrader @psac_afpc They also in the same call offer to clean my air-ducts and help with my windows licences. This is a marked improvement in service! The only catch is that they ask me to buy iTunes gift cards from my local Wallgreens requiring an international border crossing.

    @phamzforfree Yes, I recently changed the battery. I had to restore the phone with another tool because I was getting error 53 with iTunes.

    Oh my gosh, #AppleMusic is so trash. I'm on a free trail, and the **** barely works. I mean, I guess you need to use it on an Apple product 'cause I can't log into itunes on my PC, it won't log into my Roku. Anyone else have issues with Apple Music?

    @hyperfixedpod iTunes Match. Access your iTunes library on any of your devices. Track down a copy of senuti & rip your OG library

    Stuff I use - Synology NAS - SmartSync Pro backup software - Backblaze cloud backup service - Wondershare MobileTrans (to copy phone data to PC in a more controlled way than iTunes does it) - Amazon Prime photo storage

    Damn @Snapchat if it's not broken don't fix it. No one wants an AI bot forced on them like a @U2 album on iTunes

    In my messing around with third party music apps for the phone, I forgot about the watch, which none of the options I saw seem to support. I think I am going to have to install iTunes. This is terrible. Maybe I'll build a separate PC just to quarantine it.

    @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

    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.

  • dwaidontwait

    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

    @WonderWomaNinja My hubby has access to everything and vise versa. We use one iTunes account because he has issues with passwords so we get most of each other’s texts & calls. My accounts are used for recovery of his accounts. After 30 yrs if I had something to hide, I shouldn’t be married.

    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

    @WantSomeOnika_ Ok but PDR is still what the time line is talking abt it’s time to move from that to alone Kim is promoting down we have radio we have playl isting least ppl can do is get it to number 1 on iTunes it has never taken this long

    @1000kilobytes I'm starting to believe it's futile, I've been opening radar issues since 2015 about iTunes (now Music) library management, and the bugs are still there 10 years later

    @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.
