    Most traumatic part of Spotify being down is I just discovered my dad purchased Red from Big Machine Records instead of Red (Taylor’s Version) on iTunes last month

  • This_Liss Steven Liss (@This_Liss) reported

    With Spotify down, today's playlist is brought to you by Daft Punk, U2, and whatever else synced to my phone when I last connected to iTunes circa 2012

  • WarriorofDork Jeromont Bardin (@WarriorofDork) reported

    I switched over to Apple Music since Spotify is down and holy cow it's like a little time capsule because I haven't seriously used iTunes for probably a decade.

  • itsdavidhughes David Hughes (@itsdavidhughes) reported

    @petermcreaper Yeah. Rough. With such a large user base too. Super messy, but I don’t see why they couldn’t have kept iTunes untouched and had an entirely separate app for the subscription service, until it made sense to kill iTunes. It’d better than this.

  • monoah_lly noah 🍓👻 (@monoah_lly) reported

    spotify being down has sent me back to my middle school itunes music

  • maggiepiercy_ maggie🪴 (@maggiepiercy_) reported

    spotify being down is forcing me to listen to the one album i still have on itunes which is twenty one pilots self titled album so i fully expect spotify to pay for the therapy i'll need after today

  • PikachAbbie Abbie 。◕ ‿ ◕。 (@PikachAbbie) reported

    Absolutely shameful the music I had to listen to at the gym tonight whilst Spotify was down bc I haven’t updated my iTunes since I was 14

  • mattleagueone matt 🇧🇮🇦🇺 (@mattleagueone) reported

    @sampriv27 @CALlCOJACK nope itunes is where you buy music and apple music is a streaming service like spotify

  • CatNamedKai 💛🤍 Calico Kai 💜🖤 (@CatNamedKai) reported

    Spotify AND discord are down huh. Time to go back to iTunes and Skype

  • turdsmasher69 super monkey bong speedrun (@turdsmasher69) reported

    @adultmomband I want to switch away, but without some streaming service I just don’t find new bands. The tidal app just didn’t work well with bluetooth and iTunes on pc is really slow and resource intensive. I do always set the audio to the highest quality I can tho

  • victorialyn712 Victoria (Taylor’s Version) (@victorialyn712) reported

    spotify going down means i spent my shift jamming to the hits of 2007-2015 on my itunes account

  • DangerBrooks Dan Brooks (@DangerBrooks) reported

    @jcrutchmer It's crazy. I don't understand why iTunes/Music has been such a locus of problems for Apple for the last decade, but I bet there's some internal company dynamic I don't know about.

  • rebulrich Rebecca Ulrich (@rebulrich) reported

    @namssus @SpotifyUSA @discord David Ulrich moved us off of spotify last month, has itunes ever been down?

  • Gigithepuppy_ Gigithepuppy (@Gigithepuppy_) reported

    Discord down? reason to be anti social Spotify down? Mine is working fine but, YouTube is a thing. If YouTube goes down don't worry, I have 7 and a half hours of musicals I can listen to on iTunes

  • ignGiveCore Oblivious (@ignGiveCore) reported

  • calicohart calico (@calicohart) reported

  • bexemertonxx Bex (@bexemertonxx) reported
