Itunes struggles

[IrishSpartan]

Anyone else have a ton of music on there computers and every time you attempt to update your phones music it becomes the most annoying process ever. I know its random but I wanna throw my laptop at the wall right now.

 

[clashmore_mike]

Nah, google music and an Android phone works just fine.

Apple makes some great products but they missed the boat on iTunes.

I am sick of Itunes. I just listen to Pandora now. My computer magically doesn't recognize my touch and wants to synch my library, but I will lose songs that I have "gathered" from other people because I don't have their permission or some crap like that. Very frustrating. Not to mention needing Biz Markie badly.

 

[IrishSpartan]

I need my music. Sounds weird but I do drive a lot and i cant stand the radio so like most people I use my phone. The problem with pandora is that I am one of the people that is very into more of the upcoming rap artists (julius Myth, Skizzy Mars, Kendrick etc...) where most of their music is from mix-tapes so pandora cant play them. So im forced to deal with this crap.

crApple is the problem here brother.

Look into Google Play. Much better.

Simply add a library of your "friends" stuff to iTunes and voila. But iTunes does suck. There is a reason why Apples stock is losing value at a tremendous rate. Unless they come up with something more revolutionary, Android has passed them by. Samsung makes killer phones and tablets and for cheaper.

Apple will eventually become a MySpace for the second time.

 

[DSully1995]

Meh not a big deal when your songs may or may not be pirated

Agreed. I've got a Samsung Android and it accepts any song I throw at it. iTunes is to busy trying to get you to buy their music.

 

[phork]

I'm not even saying pirate the stuff, I support app makers and song makers a like. Its nice to try before you buy though.

This is the reason that Hollywood is bleeding out. They refuse to provide content the way people use it nowadays. I have converted my DVD and Bluray movies to .avi and stream them throughout my house on media players.

there are many other programs available to use other than itunes......quick google search

 

[irish1958]

Ditch iTunes; there are several (free) alternative choices available. Google it and try some of them.

First off Apple products do not suck haha. Secondly, Apple did not miss the boat on iTunes, they CREATED the boat. Apple stock will drop because Steve Jobs was that company. However they will still stay the industry leader.

iTunes is also free......

Google music is far superior to itunes and Google is far superior to Apple as a company. One is for the people, the other is for selling to the people. Easy.

more accurate.

its fascinating how these leading tech companies move so quickly from being the admired and the loved to the detested and mocked.

that industry is a "what have you done for me lately" if ever there was one.

Android phones outsell iPhones 2.5:1.

I am so eagerly awaiting the iPad Micro! Or was that the iPod Touch Mega? I can't remember, they all look the same.

The reason they outsell the iPhone is because the POS phones break and the user has to go buy a new one! It seems like it is the hipster thing to hate on Apple these days. IF Apple didnt exist, we wouldn't have some of the technology we do today.

Yah because no one else could have thought it up. Come on.

Apple has always taken preexisting tech and made it available to the masses...albeit in an idiot proof and dumbed down form.
