@BigZaphod I remember when it used to be the case that if iTunes started ******* you knew your computer really was having problems and needs a restart

@ardentPuppy_ i think they should put more effort into it, its pretty clear that a lot of iphone users with windows pcs are using spotify instead of apple music because itunes sucks on windows, and no ones gonna switch computers for a music streaming service

@innerchilding7 You can make an Apple ID on desktop via iTunes first if that feels more comfortable. And then just download the app on your android phone, login with the details. It doesn't ask for payment details unless you subscribe for Apple Music Premium.

@Artosis iTunes is for audio only content. I believe the service you are looking for is Apple TV.

$APPL just tried to delete old photos on my iPhone over and over and over again. My files are a mess. ITunes has made my music a mess. I want this stock to die. The ecosystem is terrible and confusing. **** this company

@philtrem22 @LinuxSeb macOS is mostly good. A friend just got into confusing trouble by allowing iCloud to take control of files. I got into trouble one time by letting iTunes do what it wanted with my music. And of course the shell (zsh) is different from bash, if you're used to bash.

@FireBean23 Thanks, that's very kind of you! Actually, I already sent the tracks to CDBaby, do I don't need the help anymore. I did several tests, concluding the microsecond was not added by my DAWs, rather it's a problem in iTunes and VLC's track import. I even ended up burning a CD, (1/2)

@FistfulOfDave @plex it’s a consequence of the server implementing the same approach as itunes. the queue actions affect an “up next” region which doesn’t exist until you manipulate the queue in some way.

@miklos_akos Most games actually detect and block VMs now. And I'm more referring to things like iTunes or the Apple Store basically being shoved down your throat on Apple Devices. At least with Windows you can modify it all to not be a burden. Regardless, you do you, I just hate apple lmao

@Gamer_Shy_ Why would I want to play games on a machine specifically designed for work? Also neither the App Store nor iTunes (which doesn't even exist on macOS anymore) are shoved down your throat, you can choose to not use them just like on Windows. Microsoft is more aggressive with this.

@JPosnanski They get us on the ground in one piece and right side up they can read the iTunes terms of service in Klingon as far as I’m concerned.

@jdalrymple Bring back a real version of OSX server. Bring back Airport, use the Apple TV as a base station Fix iTunes so sharing can be done like it used to be able to. Make IOS/OSX a better product, don't use services as lock in, I will use it if it is better. I do NOT do subscriptions

@FireBean23 playing it on several devices to make sure it plays correctly (it did), then importing it to iTunes and that's when the error was added. Also played it directly on iTunes without importing and it played good. Then imported NIN's The Fragile and also added that damn blank space(2)

Because the Itunes is attached to this new bullshit account I had to make, just to turn it on. I know my sign in. Thats the worst part.

To @Apple users, I haven't used my iTunes account for about 8 years but received an email saying my account was locked because of too many login attempts. Should I bother unlocking it or leave it? It's been over a decade since I last used any #Apple products 📱

@ghjpop1 @ChartEssentials @ladygaga But you’re trying to imply that iTunes shouldn’t have weight in the Billboard 100 and that will only perpetuate the problem I just mentioned. The song it’s popular enough to get people to buy it

@harte_karen I haven’t had any issues with listening to the album via ITunes. Perhaps contacting apple care about your account.

@JamesCridland @_PodLink @mijustin It seems like ~10 services use the iTunes ID, ~5 use the feed URL, and the rest use a custom ID (which I assume require lookups to that service?)

@MattyMullins Pre-ordered on ITunes weeks ago. Apple won’t let me download. Hopefully many others are not having the issue
