Here's a video of Steve Jobs showcasing a new feature in iTunes... podcasts!

"You could try to sell podcasts but the whole phenomenon is so great - it's free. And I think what we're going to see is an advertising-supported model emerge, just like free radio."

Apparently the term 'podcast' is a portmanteau of 'iPod' and 'broadcasting'. Here, Steve picks the latest episode from the Adam Curry Podcast and is quick to hit the stop button. 😆

@djsumdog @wintermute_oregon @BunkerBuster Unfortunately they pulled all the old #TheDailyShow episodes from #iTunes last week...I was going to buy them...

Not saying he's not a liar, or wasn't then, but I don't think 100% of this can be blamed on him being a liar since people with #Dementia will get things wrong all the time.

Question aux experts de Itunes: j'ai bidouillé au hasard les paramètres et maintenant, j'ai cette présentation toute nase du machin. Je voudrais retirer cette colonne albums dans la "bibliothèque" à "morceaux". Si quelqu'un a une idée... Merci.

Browsing https://alternativeto.net/software/strawberry/ because I was thinking about starting an audio player project again.

There are so many half-done or abandoned players, I don't want to add to that pile.

Taffer,
@Taffer@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

Tried Audacious on macOS (I'm at work); crashed immediately when I enabled the "Mac Media Keys" plugin. 😆

Not sure why I'm dissatisfied with Strawberry, it mostly works fine for me. 🤷

Taffer,
@Taffer@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

LOL now I remember, Strawberry just crashed in the middle of playing a song. Not sure if the song is corrupted, encoded weirdly, or if there's some other issue at work.

It’s 2024. I want to make a backup of my photos in original quality on an offline drive but #Apple really wants me to pay more iCloud subscription instead. #Itunes is an useless crap struggling to sync photos with my computer. DCIM on #iPhone is a slow, unstable and buggy mess that never works properly or crashes mid-transfer. So my only reasonable solution is to pay for an app that basically sets up a connection with their WebDav server companion app and be done with it. Fuck Apple.

I didn't realize that Apple was trying to kill iTunes on Windows; As they recently came out with several apps: Apple Music, Apple Devices, Apple TV+, and iCloud for Windows!

They carved iTunes like a turkey and are serving it's remains in a fancy, modern way. I already prefer the Apple Music UI over iTunes which felt so clumsy and antiquated.

Shit take of the year, so far… the product has a roughly 3 month wait time.

I dare say that there is no reason to market an item when demand outstrips supply.

I'm not saying #Apple only releases category-(re)defining hits, but they have a track record that pundits would do well to consider:
#AppleII
#Macintosh
#LaserWriter
#PowerBook
#iMac
#iTunes
#iPod
#iPhone

#AppleWatch
#AirPods
#VisionPro?

Apple, I am sorry but you don't know how to design a good UI/UX anymore.

  1. Why does “Approve Collaborators" need an entire Table row? Checkboxes are also more Mac-y.
  2. Why are the “Done” and “Start Collaborating” buttons so tall & wide?
  3. What the hell am I supposed to press? Start Collaborating” & “Done” seem like equal triggering actions? Should “Done” have been “Cancel" instead?
  4. This feels so damn Mobile, not desktop.

The absolute most important play info in my (Apple) Music account is the last played time.

I just listened to an entire album, 12 tracks.

Two of the tracks still show a last played time for the year 2021.

How, the fuck, do you not update the last played time 1 of 6 times?

@philsplace Are you trying to get the janky #Apple Music app to play nice with their janky #AppleScript and janky #iCloud sync? I wish you the best of luck.

Take a look at https://dougscripts.com — this guy has been automating Apple media apps since before #iTunes when it was the third-party classic #Mac #SoundJam app.

@KydiaMusic knowing that spotify paid mere mortals nothing and is about to pay even less — roughly what might an actual artist get from buying a cd? buying a download? buying a t-shirt?

@KydiaMusic@mastodon.social avatar

But Bandcamp is a middle man I can upload my tracks to directly. I have a digital distributor that not only gets my music on all the major (and minor) streaming services world wide, but also makes them available for purchase on places like iTunes or Amazon. So there are two middle men: CDBaby (my Digital Distributor) and iTunes, for instance:
