Re download my ITunes library after having to get rid of it cause my old phone only had 16 GB’s. Running through “Black Messiah” for the first time in maybe 2 years. It holds up although a lot of people were ‘meh’ on it once the hype died down

I bought 'The Problem with Apu' on iTunes, and then hosted a bunch of viewings of it. If you're local to me (Central Illinois), I'm down to do it again.

And the beauty is that it’s essentially a gift card, not a full-service debit card, because customers can’t ever cash it out except by buying things from Starbucks. So that money is gone forever. Steve Jobs did the same with the iTunes Store, Microsoft has Xbox Live gift cards.

Also, you couldn’t even stream 4K from iTunes on Mac until Catalina. And now only on a subset of devices. And as I said, Netflix on Windows is blocked from 4K b/c of some driver/device issue. It’s honestly insulting.

@annie_jiminie @AureliaOT7 @BTS_twt Hello, I was looking for the way to buy on iTunes Venezuela, it cannot be done with Paypal, only with credit cards. It is quite difficult because of the economic problems we have, but several people are doing our best 🥺

@DoloresOfCourse The problem IS that you have to find a “ machine “ with the cookies to see them !!! You have to download a special app etc, etc. ... I wanted to watch it on my TV. But couldn’t! Had to download an app blah blah blah! They used to just have it on iTunes, itcwas very simple!

@AppleSupport I own all 10 seasons of Friends on iTunes but for some reason I’m unable to play S1 E5 on an Apple TV 4th Generation. Tried several times and keep getting the error: There’s a problem loading this content. Please help!

@mikeFAIL @DKingBH This piqued my interest, gents. I'm surprised how few "radio play" singles there are on a couple of the albums here, and now I'm tempted to go down the rabbit hole and download a few of these. I'm appreciating this thread. (Yeah, I'm still using iTunes and a 160GB iPod classic.)

@chriswaterguy Thinking about Audible’s pedigree, they date (as a digital audiobook service, at least) to the same era as iTunes, which initially allowed you to download purchased songs, but only DRM-protected, and playable only in iTunes and iPod. It could just be a holdover from those days.

Record live set in Serato. Open in Ableton fix any issues + add drops. Save as .wav Open in iTunes. Convert to AAC. Open in Serato to make sure everything is straight. Upload to mixcloud. This seems like a lot of steps.

Found the issue, partly the fact that iTunes settings didn’t transfer over to the new phone, partly my external drive wouldn’t wake up.

Good morning from 12°F in Idaho Falls. Nice $4 breakfast at McDonald's. Catalina largely working pretty well. I don't like the 3 apps that replaced iTunes. The Music app has a lot of UI issues that iTunes did not have. I want my media outside of the Apple ecosystem.
