    Why No Way On iTunes Not Working ??? It’s Too Early For This.

  • JoeTurksta Joe (@JoeTurksta) reported

    You know you’re old when buying a movie on ITunes is just far simpler than trying to grab off a BitTorrent server and then go through the rigmarole of getting it on to your TV. Apple TV is family proof and to the point. Sing 2 is out. The kids are amped as F. $25 for peace lol

  • SpilFiasco The Ghost of Ralph Krueger (@SpilFiasco) reported

    @WHOISCONWAY I’m not sure which would encounter issues due to clearance on samples but any chance you re-issue some of the older stuff? I know this one is up on datpiff but 2 i know arent are Physikal Therapy & there was another. Id buy both off itunes or bandcamp whatever if you put em up

  • Cooldua26 Brandon Donahue 🦋 (@Cooldua26) reported

    Looks like iTunes is down Dua fans probably crashed the site trying to buy Sweetest Pie.

  • ZachiriahM Mays TV! 📺 (@ZachiriahM) reported

    @IAMRJPAYNE Is it the same issue with ITunes

  • MericaRadioGurl Radio gurl (@MericaRadioGurl) reported

    @KyleForgeard @nelkboys Damn, that’s screwed up that iTunes took the interview down!!

  • jazzychad Chad Etzel (@jazzychad) reported

    itunes (on mac) has suddenly seemed to slow down playback by like 10% ????? am i on drugs??

  • michaelocyoung Michael Young (@michaelocyoung) reported

    @prodnose Interesting that in those early days, songs were limited by the amount of music one could put on a 7" vinyl record; and Blackstar was edited down to 9:57 so that it could be released as a single on iTunes (they didn't allow songs over 10:00)

  • theyunaproject ChromaYuna 🌈 clipping niji soon? (@theyunaproject) reported

    Bleh… figuring out tech issues is hard Especially when you wanna hand-draw the clips but you need to sync it up with the audio so you try to import it to your iPad via computer but iTunes doesn’t wanna listen to you and then you try figuring out video editing but you don’t hav-

  • DEM1976 Dave Myers (@DEM1976) reported

    @JonesOnTheNBA It’s the Silicon Valley hubris. Apple makes world class hardware. iTunes changed how we consumed music and movies. They look at Netflix and say “we can do that, no problem!” Streaming services are hard. Content is hard. They need to iterate

  • RobinDLaws Robin D. Laws (@RobinDLaws) reported

    In a development that should not have surprised me, updating the Ken and Robin Talks About Stuff RSS feed to iTunes' new security requirements has borked it for some other readers. If you are having this problem, let me know which reader you are using.

  • eileenrudden Eileen Rudden (@eileenrudden) reported

    @evernotehelps I renewed my subscription via iTunes on Feb 27. Ad of today, you have not recognized the renewal and treat me as a free user. I’ve been a user since 2012, but have this trouble annually, Help! You won’t let me submit a support ticket

  • TitlesTireMe Binah 🍄 (@TitlesTireMe) reported

    @loustales Not itunes 😭 oh he down bad

  • TrillBotTrillin Cody's Subtweeter (@TrillBotTrillin) reported

    Itunes had a lot of terrible ones in the world series.

  • anastasia77700 Anastasia (@anastasia77700) reported

    @AppleSupport @AppleSupport Thank you for sending the article. I’ve gone through the steps and unfortunately, it did not resolve the issue. I cannot access either App Store or iTunes Store. I tried accessing the App Store via browser and got a blank page.

  • cmreesecm reese :) (@cmreesecm) reported

    @tattooedkiss13 Wait whattt I thought this was only a problem on Apple Music/iTunes!!! I thought it worked on Spotify

  • ArcticPheenix The Arctic Phoenix (@ArcticPheenix) reported

    @Guerrilla Still not finding it in the US iTunes Store. The link provided results in an error page that says this isn’t available for this region. 🤔

  • realmaxkeeble Keeble (area bird) (@realmaxkeeble) reported

    @31k0ubaj if you have a pc try musicbee, its everything you ever wanted itunes to be but better my dream is to put it all on a plex server so i could stream it like spotify anyway

  • A_Uni_Whatever Uni (@A_Uni_Whatever) reported

    I probably spent real money on iTunes from 2012 to 2015, and that’s the real reason I use Apple Music over any other music steaming service.

  • JZaneGG 7G | Jonathan Zane (Ионафан Зейн) 🇺🇸 (3%) (@JZaneGG) reported

    Is anyone else having problems accessing iTunes Store & Apple Music?

  • nataliegallops Natalie 🐴 (@nataliegallops) reported

    I was going to start distributing directly to Apple, but I can’t login to iTunes Connect OR iTunes Producer so I’m taking that as a sign from the gods to stick with @Draft2Digital for now.

  • no1tracii tracy (@no1tracii) reported

    @ImNotOwned Holy crap... Emmanuel Macron just shut down iTunes!!

  • bisexualghosts gray (@bisexualghosts) reported

    i think something that explains a lot about me is that in 6th grade I bought the wrong version of boulevard of broken dreams on iTunes and it ended up being this weird bluegrass cover that was extremely banjo-heavy. I didn’t have enough money to fix my mistake so i was just stuck

  • _bubtea bubbie🧋6.05 spoilers (@_bubtea) reported

    if they don't bother making the ost from dod3 on spotify or itunes then tf is the point of them taking it down on youtube

  • Landon81814059 Swiftly fine like a line (@Landon81814059) reported

    This is just a theory and what happens could have just been a technical error. But I also have another theory that’s tied to both the iTunes, and how speak now was not available for a while, and the Spotify shut down earlier this week.

  • seanodotcom Seaη O (@seanodotcom) reported

    @ZachWeiner It's such a pain. Apple's Windows service works about half the time, iTunes is EOL, and 3rd-party programs are flaky as hell.

  • blamsamran Sam Branman (@blamsamran) reported

    @JOSHUANAPONTE @lenahornay Soulseek is a good option! The problem you’re having with youtube rippers is that many are not ACTUALLY making mp3s, they’re just labeling them as mp3s, which is why they won’t play. If you have to use YT rips use something like Jdownloader2 (or just spend the $1 on itunes)

  • pterodaustro 🍒 blair 🍒 (@pterodaustro) reported

    why does watching interstella have to be such a pain. the only streaming service its on is the roku channel & you cant buy it in one piece off itunes. plus the bluray is apparently not upscaled well and is picky about what players itll play on. why god
