    This is impressive considering that Itunes is a streaming service to buy/rent films so almost always the top films on itunes are new movies that are still in movie theaters but available for on demand. Or new movies that just came out the movie theaters for exclusive on demand.

    People who use Apple Music or iTunes should be aware of some changes to their service. Starting March 1st, 2018, Apple Music will no longer offer ad-free listening. In addition

    While we wait for @MariahCarey and her team to fix the iTunes issue (listed as an album instead of a single which is why is not appearing on any charts and people can't find it) #TypeDangerous, be sure you grab your copy of the single on Amazon! @MariahAlerts

    @mwill2023 @Cobratate @RealAlexJones Alex doesn't talk about the Jew problem. Been a listener of Alex Jones since 2008 when I was in middle school. I caught his show live in iTunes for years. There was only a few callers that would get through and ask the question about Zionist Jews and he'd immediately hang up.

    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?

    I ran into several issues updating to iOS 26 - Windows users CANNOT update to iOS 26 yet iTunes & Apple Devices app say that you must update your app in order to upgrade to iOS 26 3uTools runs into the issue saying there's some http error with systemtime, Older macOS devices too, and unUpdated iPhones too, say that it requires an update to download iOS 26, but 3uTools on Mac works. While writing this, I flashed my phone!

    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?

    @EricVldw @Munky_Berto I'm on like my 10th new Mac since iTunes was rolled out and I've never had a problem sending my tunes to a new machine. It's in the 'Music' folder under 'iTunes' You can drag them all straight to a external hard drive.

    @BigPurrPurr @Angeliinaaax_ @MrsTOH2O Thank you. It’s like it’s 2 factions. 1) OG-iTunes/Apple Music Lib & 2) Apple Music + that you now pay $10/mon for. Before AM was a place where we could take our own cds upload into the app, & buy music from iTunes & make playlists for free. This pay service changed everything.

    @N11nyNancy @brk_mira How do we suck at multitasking when we kept 3 jm songs on spotify global at the same time for a month and they are still doing well? People are scared to buy from the official store but there is no issue with itunes or amazon. There is no excuse for bot entering charts at all

    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:

    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!

    $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.
