    @Gorillo13 @TommyDoyle47 It's still not free. Should be available through play service. Probably not Itunes.

    @godmodecharlie @garyanddino I’m asking this for a friend who has no social media. He used to down from the website and upload to his iTunes and then be able to take it with him on his phone. He found found that it was way too much work and stopped listening, but now wants to play catch up and listen again

    @SnazzyQ Personally I have a lot of movies in my iTunes account and stupid drm protection means I had no option but to buy Apple TV to actually watch them on tv since they won’t play from my plex server.

    @TheDazeel Apple + is really bad with this. They have very little original (or supplemental) content that’s included with the subscription. Everything is either “subscribe to this premium service” or “rent this on iTunes.”

    @ChaseFlorell Best music player ever! Now we have to deal with this itunes **** only because that's the platform I had to choose post-napster and now there's no way out... apple music is pretty good as a service though

    @sjsmail Depends on how you define legit... geododging isn’t strictly illegal. But that’s how you could sign up to HBO Max - with a VPN/SmartDNS service and pay for it through a US iTunes account.

    @BobbyPiton3 I hear you need to turn off -in your settings- allowing Apple to delete your app’s if they choose too - go to screen time- scroll down to content, & privacy, then to iTunes and deleting apps - don’t allow. Not sure if this is correct information?

    @samanthamarika1 Please ignore this tweet. I hope she takes it down because it's stupid and dangerous. Absolutely do not listen to this person. Go to your settings for itunes and disable removing apps. Disabling updates will leave your phone open to vulnerabilities and attacks.

    It did 🤯 There are more matches I think it could make, but it matched the stuff that's on my phone to the best of its ability, 'cause I can sign in to Music on an Android device and see a handful of the content (not from iTunes or Music itself) available for streaming. Wow.

  • jamespcrowley68
    James Crowley (@jamespcrowley68) reported

    Sorry he said “late to this party.” Still weird. I feel like without iTunes we wouldn’t be in the same place with streaming as we are now (which has its own issues), but still really defined a generation

    @superquanganh @ThisIsNoahEvans They will probably ban him too, probably already have because everything that is on Spotify trickles down from Apple Music/iTunes
