    Problem is. I don’t have Spotify, or stationhead, or whatever the streaming service is. I have ITunes.

    iOS App Store + itunes store was too powerful. And it wasn’t a good media player. At the time it had to replace your iPod so it needed to be powerful for music too imo And i recall various hardware issues (mainly slow) and being exclusive to just Sprint back when switching carriers was a huge hassle

    Question: Has anyone else experience this issue with their iPod 2nd gen? I had GreenPoisi0n install a new firmware on my device, and now it won't connect to the iTunes store or any other applications. It says "ipod 2nd gen not connected to the network" and "error 1234". Help!

    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

    @avilla01_ @DAZNBoxing I receive email receipts from Apple/iTunes whenever a purchase is made. There’s a link in the email to report a problem. I reported it yesterday and had the refund this morning. Then canceled DAZN.

    Absolutely appalled at the @Apple service in India. I’ve had an issue with the Add Funds option for ages and nothing, nothing has been done about it so far. It’s getting increasingly difficult for me to renew my subscriptions because iTunes just won’t let me add funds

    @MorganWallen I'm the problem album return at 1 on us itunes album charts. He outsold "Reputation, I'm the fraud of music industry" version by Taylor swift.

    @Interredd @King1FoReal @Mo_Magoda Problem is these companies itunes/Spotify take almost 50% of the fee and artist like Zonke are not studio artist,they make use sessional musicians when they record so from the 50% they they need to pay these sessional musicians/studio time etc not making much from everything

    @AbhishekMarkets I would say that most people use iPhone because it is easy to upgrade. In android there is no full backup option like itunes that backs up passwords, notes and logins also. If you think you know some free apps that backup whole android (u can exclude login) let me know

    @SuspenseP35 @BoldExaltus The 12 movies, likely including The Shawshank Redemption, can be downloaded from platforms like Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, iTunes, Google Play, Vudu, or Microsoft Store, depending on your region. Check availability for each title, as not all may be downloadable. Use legal platforms to avoid piracy issues. Services like JustWatch can help locate specific movies.

    @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.

    with my return of Iphone to her with the request that the phone number be terminated or at least that ATT be informed that the phone was broken and I had/have no ability to fix it and thus I gave it back to her. Following that I had no access to my legally purchased Itunes books

    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

    @spectatorindex UAE: Please stop before someone actually reads the UN Charter we’ve all been ignoring like it’s the iTunes Terms of Service.

    Dear @Apple , This has been the most frustrating hour EVER. I am trying to make an account so I can login in to the iTunes store and buy a song. - undefined error at first screen - locked - verify codes not arriving - "can't send code to this phone" - does not work in Firefox

    @FikirtemariamG a hero was walking around the merch line offering cash to US people to buy on Haegeum on Itunes and they turned her down "we stream" and "I don't use iTunes" :(

    Mariah Carey's World (@MCareysWorld) reported

    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

    @ibuildthecloud Stuff like the Newton is the obvious counterexample, but for a more modern example -- iTunes was apocalyptically bad for a very long time. For a more spicy take -- the iPhone was basically a toy until iPhone 5 (or 4, if you ignore the reception issues). A very Vista/7 dynamic.

    @HONGSMINGKI I think part of the problem is I have no idea where to stream. I am constantly playing the music video but I only learned about iTunes last night.

  • dwaidontwait
    DWAI (@dwaidontwait) reported

    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

    @HSajwanization TBH Apple has never been very good at software. iTunes has sucked for years. Phone updates regularly have problems.
