Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
EricFate (@EricFate_) reported@subinev Back in the day, you were required to be part of one in order to be able to negotiate digital distribution. Only labels could sign a deal with a distribution service like IODA, so if you weren't in one, then you weren't getting on iTunes.
-
Z-word🩸 (@xcxplosion) reported@KacperCroft no, apple music is the streaming service, iTunes is where people buy digital copies of albums/singles
-
Scott Anguish (@sanguish) reportedHow the hell is Sleepaway Camp in the Top Movies Chart on the iTunes Store?!?!? It’s just so terrible. Not even good terrible.
-
Jessiaca Evans (@Boujee_Bottle) reportedanyone else having problems with the iTunes Store while making a purchase
-
𝔏𝔢𝔞𝔥 (@sophiarauhIs) reported@jdbperfections Yes, apple is a streaming service and itunes is a buying one
-
Maryam (@afanaccountant) reported@jdbperfections Yeah, iTunes is where u buy things to be saved into ur Apple Music library. Apple Music is a streaming service u subscribe to each month to stream music.
-
𝕋𝕖𝕜𝕠 (@TekoOtter) reportedI made a terrible, terrible mistake. iTunes suggested Steely Dan to me, and I thought, sure, let's try some. It reinforced that I am not a fan of Steely Dan. But now iTunes thinks I am a Steely Dan fanatic.
-
CARLOS EDUARDO TEODORO (@CARLOSE46161194) reported@EURIELLE_MUSIC 😭I could not buy the 🦋Butterfly Album through the itunes...for technical error of payment. I am sorry! I'd like to have those songs. I guess I'll just have to settle for Apple Music.
-
Sai-fon (@LastSnowLeopard) reported@BloodyRedBaron What it comes down to, ultimately, beyond the stuff being hidden, was that itunes is dumb as all hell for how to alphabetize titles. I met 16 year olds when I worked at Best Buy decades ago who know that you do last name first on people.
-
Donkey Patrol (@crouchingbadger) reported@scottjenson I also have a serious problem with the way iOS lets me store and USB retrieve my own photos as files, but not a chance of getting a video or music file on/off a device without squirting it through iTunes (genuinely the worst PC software I've ever used outside an enterprise)
-
Indie Music Bus (@IndieMusicBus) reported80% of our time working here at Indie Music Bus is spent going over music submissions and most of that time is spent resolving metadata issues. I guess it will always be that way. So far though, buying music on iTunes is the easiest way to get properly tagged music.
-
steffi (@peachesghostt) reported@jdbperfections apple music is a streaming service, itunes is a music store
-
BIG 🦅 (@lilv_1010) reported@sakpo0007_ Bro have they correct the issues with iTunes now ?
-
Ery 🖤 (@Erylieber) reportedThere is an issue on iTunes cause we can't find it in the search bar and this is frustrating idk if Wizkid FC has any contact with his team but the remix should be more visible and also it lacks playlisting and needs to be sent to radio. Someone need to contact and inform them.
-
DJ Hummingbird Feeder (@jameskeithford) reportedi have an external CD drive which is maybe 4 years old, but it still rips beautifully; i suspect the problem is “Music” (née iTunes) just isn’t caching data fast enough to burn, even at the slowest possible speed settings. this computer is 1.5 years old, but iTunes is a graveyard
-
JERRY is streaming WLM REMIX (@menarenotfunny) reported@waitisovah the problem is that before the the itunes era really kicked in people would buy the albums instead of the singles themselves so usually a lot of the sales from the singles went to the album
-
beef supreme (@beefsupr3m3) reported@EoinHiggins_ I wonder if the iTunes terms of service still say i can't use my copy to produce weapons of mass destruction. Fascists.
-
Call me Pat (@patrickjdennis_) reportedDisney+’s Premier Access model is atrocious because these films don’t even cost $30 when we buy them on iTunes, and it’s that on top of the monthly cost of the service.
-
Zeineb 🩰 (@slutforflatline) reportedSomeone contact wizkid’s team and tell them about the itunes issue..
-
reii / offline (@Axtmy1) reportedTrading $50 iTunes card for genshin accs ONLY GENSHIN ACCS PLEASE!!!! syd* Lf: Event banner characters... ganyu, hu tao, albedo, venti, xiao, yoimiya.. etc. ACCEPTED SERVERS; NA OR ASIA ONLY, any other server will be automatically declined, sorry! #genshintrade #genshintrades
-
Lartman 🇳🇬 🇨🇦 🇺🇲 (@Lartman_) reported@WizkidNews__ Please, how is the iTunes issue?
-
ness ४ (@qloriouspurpose) reported👌 this close to snapping and buying the shining on iTunes because it’s my favourite movie and my one streaming service that has it doesn’t let me download stuff
-
addie (@addiiiiiiiiie) reportedPlus if people still bought physical music and used iTunes then leave me be alone would have made me 100,000 dollars by now and I would have made more in three months than i am going to make as a server all year
-
Cardi B Charts (@BardiChart) reportedRumors has already outpeaked Wild Side on Apple music and iTunes of most countries and not showing any signs of slowing down
-
3:10 Value (@310Value) reported@NoblemanGesture Take a look at the top 10 holdings. Apple distributes porn via their itunes store. Google distributes porn on youtube. Facebook has porn issues. Amazon has porn and contraception. Berkshire is run by one of the larges planned parenthood contributors in history.
-
Lobster Phone (@querpp) reporteddue to an exporting error 'Nintendoe, Wheres my Job' is being taken down from Spotify/iTunes. earliest re-release date would be early October at this point
-
Shawn Ryan (@ashawnryan) reportedMy biggest song on Spotify is Man Down My biggest song on Apple Music/iTunes is King
-
BIG FEJONS (@AwelewaFeranmi7) reported@jarianastalent @Aqsamad2 Yeah wizkid label RCA sucks at promo and i think his management solved the issue with iTunes
-
JERRY is streaming WLM REMIX (@menarenotfunny) reported@partyoncharli @wetmiraj no i think that before during the itunes digital sales era, you could have heavy promotion and radio play but if no one buys the song or it’s horrible you’d either be stuck in the top 20-40 region or have terrible longevity on the charts.

Jamie Kemmerer (@JamieKemmerer) reportedDear @apple, SEARCH is not a "filter field" It is search and it should be omnipresent in an app like Music / iTunes. IF you make the terrible decision to hide it (as you have) at least preserve when a user opts to turn it on. When ON leave it ON. #usability101
