The problem with moving over to Apple Music is I have to confront all the iTunes songs I bought a decade+ ago and it is… embarrassing

@Akfamilyhome What's interesting is that most of the Pokemon OSTs are on iTunes and are cheaper than tracking down physical CDs, yet they're not on Spotify or apple music. I wonder if that's going to change now.

@JohnMattson @cmclymer It's truly BAD isn't it. I ended up installing the Android version on Windows, because iTunes/web versions are terrible.

@DigiDNA Hello. I ran into a big problem. I forgot my iPhone password. Fortunately, I have a backup from a year ago that I got through Imazing software. I now have the Backup file in an external hard drive. If I put this file in iTunes Folders, can iTunes restore the data?

@DataNeel @johnthebeeler I’m only an Apple Music user (I’m never giving up my iTunes library and integrating streaming with it is just worth too much to me). Reliability has always been a weird issue, especially on desktop. Too often playback just refuses for a track no fix except a quit and relaunch.

@Jeff_in_3D yeah it's just bizarre to think they'd take down 3000 songs that aren't even pokemon and then see this and try to connect the 2 right? Either way it's awesome they dropped this and it's free. iirc in the past you had to buy it on itunes?

@izakaminska @mtaibbi Would be a good recruit for the Blind Spot. One of my problem with substack/medium/Patreon is that one has to buy a quite expensive subscription for each of the author once wants to follow. I can’t wait the switch from an iTunes model to a Spotify Model.

@francisjfoster Bur he is happy to be on iTunes which let's da end it. Their labour issues in the East dwarf any "harm" he feels Rogan is doing. Hypocrisy to the core.

@ee0pdt @SadlyItsBradley Apple is rumored to have “streaming video” a focus for headset, and they have what it takes to succeed (tvOS and Tv+ streaming service and huge iTunes catalog) No other HMD maker has first party access to a similar entertainment ecosystem, which will be an advantage for them.

The chilling reality for my music being down off iTunes & Spotify is because I almost died from someone trying me….. ******* someone…. Just someone……and then my music…..like bruh…..hold up….

(Problem, and why I’m not gonna have a lot on there to start is most of my music is .flac which iTunes doesn’t play and I’m gonna have to batch convert and save as something else)

@MrBadBit @PSTrophyRoom @MrKStep Weird thing I noticed, when I go to iTunes to search for top podcasts I can't find the top 200 anymore for just video games. You have any trouble with that?

@cmclymer I want to love Apple Music and I don't. I feel like I'm just missing something after reading the comments. I still have my old iTunes playlist (which I can use on my waterproof iPod for swimming) but I didn't find the streaming service to be as intuitive as Spotify or Amazon.

When the iTunes application on your computer crashes leaving a dump behind but you know crashdump analysis to narrow it down to the application referencing a memory location that it no longer is using and is being used by some other application. #LateNightDebugging

@BigBillMoon I haven't listened to Joe Rogan and probably never will, but censorship is censorship by any measure and I disagree with it. Ironically, Neil Young is now singing the praises of iTunes/Apple instead, so presumably child slave labour isn't a problem for him?

@henshaw I mean even my nerdy self didn’t need fully flexible storage. It was more or less a photo and iTunes server. Not a plex video thing or full of other mega files.

When it released on iTunes it's almost 100% that the audio will be clipping all over the place. But the loseless file (from the same album) that being released from other platforms (Deezer, Tidal, CD rip, etc) didn't have this issue (clipping). #twice

@trentio Primephonic was also good, but Apple acquired it and abruptly shut it down. It's supposed to be back in some form this year. That's intriguing, but the iTunes baggage in Apple Music weighs heavily.
