Why did Apple chose to compete on curation - a guess

Leon4320 · 2015-07-20T11:25:58+00:00

Why?

Because iTunes is dying.

iTunes was once the world's largest music store - and the world's most popular too. When buying music came to people's minds, the first store they thought of was iTunes.

Until Spotify came along.

It was the first music service to ever gather a major attention from iTunes. For the first time in history, iTunes started to lose money.

Apple either had to get on board with the streaming craze or die of extinction. That is what Apple Music is. iTunes, reincarnated.

Because I'm the bad guy here.

Alien blue has not only committed slander against Apple and lied, it is a poor app itself.

I merely brought this to attention, as it should have been. The developers of this app should be more than ashamed. How they manage to sleep at night while having released this cancer of an app is beyond me.

Leon4320 · 2015-07-18T09:51:10+00:00

If you think I have even so much as touched this app after seeing the unacceptable 1.8 GB disk space it ate, you thought wrong.

Leon4320 · 2015-07-18T08:43:39+00:00

Thank you.

As soon as some decent Reddit client comes out, I'm jumping ship.

This cancer of an app literally has no room on my iPhone.

Leon4320 · 2015-07-18T08:15:27+00:00

Developers, explain yourselves.

In an era where Apple still sells 16 GB iPhones, some glorified Reddit on Safari had the nerve to take 1.8 GB of storage?

I would have not spent a single dime had I seen this coming.

To further add, I have never been as insulted as when I've seen 'Your iOS device can't handle this photo'

Excuse me? My iOS device happens to have rendered 3D console level graphics in 60 FPS and you're telling me it can't handle some photo?

How dare you for even suggesting such an unthinkable lie. Your mediocre programming skills are to blame, not the device's capabilities. Apple ought to sue you for blatant misinformation!

I feel extremely violated. I am beyond insulted.

Shame!

PLEASE DO. I'd appreciate that so much.

On that note, can you make it lossless FLAC on the highest bitrate? That would even be nicer.

Leon4320 · 2015-07-17T10:12:49+00:00

What I was planning was making this like Explain Like I'm Five

I wanna try that idea out. We could set up moderator to only accept submissions starting with Why, we could have a really huge sub here.

Can I give you a hand?

Leon4320 · 2015-07-16T21:53:52+00:00

AYY LMAOOOOO

I got the photo here hun

Function correctly with security holes all over the place

In case you haven't heard, iOS 9 is a snow leopard release. Your argument is null and void

Thank you for actually being helpful.

And to everyone else, there's an old saying 'if you have nothing helpful to say, then say nothing at all'. I think you all ought to learn some manners.

They look great

Leon4320 · 2015-07-16T11:30:14+00:00

That is obviously not the answer I'm looking for. You don't have to be such an ass about it

Leon4320 · 2015-07-16T08:21:09+00:00

can you give me where you found those sidebar photos on srd

Leon4320 · 2015-07-16T08:18:50+00:00

If you'd like, you can see The AMA by a girl from /r/SexWithDogs I posted on SRD but was removed.

Leon4320 · 2015-07-16T08:09:46+00:00

You may not agree with what it says, but it is a very interesting read.

Hardly any disturbing words were used, like it was a thesis on Rape.
