    @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.

    @wonqueenofrap I mean...iTunes was down right after release, you can't find the song on Nicki's Spotify profile

    @MVPKing973 Had some of my favorite mixtapes on there. I need to login and see what they were so I can go to YouTube and convert them and download them to my iTunes.

    @NekoMichiUBC I always install the iOS or iPadOS beta on the day of release just for fun. However, I don't recommend it for anybody's main device, or for anybody who can't troubleshoot tech issues. I once had to restore an iPad through iTunes due to a charging issue in a beta...

    @utsavtechie To do any operation with iCloud, istorage,itunes is extremely complicated. With iphone it becomes even more clumsy. Even first sign in itself is tough for a first timer. This also is one of the reasons for ordinary people to not use it.

    @jayrlytromp The sales are definitely higher but the problem is I can’t see iTunes sales or Apple Music streams bc Apple doesn’t share those metrics. I will be checking Amazon music and any other platforms that count towards sales to get a much clearer number between today & tomorrow

    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

    There was a joke a LONGG while back on windo about a radio station, but i genuinely kinda want to see about making an online radio service. Something that old itunes can connect too, at least. But i feel like the amount of people who'd actually use it.. Low. but it could be fun!

    @phamzforfree Yes, I recently changed the battery. I had to restore the phone with another tool because I was getting error 53 with iTunes.

    @brittscapes I thought for sure it was on Apple Music but apparently their streaming service didn’t even exist then, I bought it on iTunes??

    Anyone else had problems with the Addison Raye album on iTunes I had already bought the singles before the album but when I bought the album, it didn’t group the singles into the album like it usually does so they’re separate and of course @AccessAddison

    @icecube Use FindMy to issue the command to wipe it remotely in case it goes online. Most likely a baggage handler took it- they'll connect it to iTunes, erase it, and reinstall iOS. Highly unlikely you're getting it back.

    @aniealerteht The upload is not working properly; no credits display on iTunes at all. Go check or fix that before things get messy.

    @AINEE07275 @svnwithu_ @Koobidivines They changed the rules for the BTS store to avoid the filtering issue, and it's really not hard to buy on itunes and amazon. We always seem to hear these kinds of excuses when it comes to supporting Yoongi.

    $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.

    @Naija_PR Wrong choice of words… the real billion movers are not the problem. It’s the $50 iTunes boys that brings shame to the industry

    Down to my last $4.14 on my iTunes account - do I use some of it for the song I'm thinking of downloading only to then remember a song I would rather have bought, or do I wait?

    I seriously don't know what the problem is with playing from iTunes Home Sharing onto my Apple TV units. One is a 4K, and the other is the basic model which lacks USB and Ethernet. I've done every possible thing to get it working, and it ceases to work. On Windows 11. Time to go Mac only and see if it works.
