Apple Goes Live With Live Music

It’s an interesting idea, but I remain skeptical as to how popular it is going to be seeing live events taking off via iTunes. Don’t get me wrong, I fully believe that live events over the Web tend to do very well. My concern is trapping people into enjoying them with iTunes.
Outside of the content [...]

What The Heck Are Music Themed Videos?

Apple lost me on this one? Are they talking about music videos, MTV style? Or am I becoming so old that I am no longer in tune with the pulse of today’s music? The latter, does seem likely.
No, Apple is apparently going to be promoting documentaries that are featuring musical artists and making them available [...]

iTunes In The EU

Is it just too little, too late? Some people might feel this way when it comes to considering where this leaves Apple’s presence overseas with regard to iTunes. The fact that matter is up until now, those in the EU wanting to purchase from iTunes where largely out of luck.
As with most things legal, bringing [...]

iTunes For Print?

Sometimes I almost feel sorry for various aspects of the print industry. Don’t get me wrong — I love magazines, myself. Especially various trade mags. But the idea of creating an iTunes-like store for digital sales is not really a solution as I see it — no more than eBooks would be to book sales.
My [...]

Eminem And Apple Still At It

Sometimes I believe it is not just the music industry that is living thirty years ago, it is also many of the tired artists who believe the world would cease to turn without their music contributions.
Luckily we are talking about Eminem here, so I can use the word “music” loosely. Yet despite the undeniable fact [...]

Go Ahead And Block iTunes - It’s Cool

Seems to me that the WebOS powered device from Palm just found itself in a world of music related hurt. With the okay from an industry source, Apple was again given the green light to continue blocking the Pre.
What I found so comical about all of this is how limited the folks at Palm are [...]

Nope - No Beatles For iTunes

So it seems as if there is still no likely date in which we will ever see the Beatles released on the the iPhones of the world via iTunes. Clearly, EMI has no intention of budging and frankly, considering the fact that while the Beatles are great band, they will eventually fade out as generations [...]

New Album Format Is Coming

Presenting a full all out album option for iTunes users actually makes a lot of sense. Think about it, album art, lyrics, the complete package available for the complete album on your iPhone.
But that’s nothing. It seems that the music industry is working on the same thing. Different format, but basically it sounds a lot [...]

Pre Sync With iTunes Fixed

To most people, the idea that somehow the Palm Pre was no longer able to work with iTunes was a moot issue. Why? Likely because those folks who wanted to sync with iTunes were likely either using an iPod or an iPhone. Clearly, it’s an “i” thing.
But despite my belief in this regard, it seems [...]

Suing Apple Over A Gift Card

Looks like things swing both ways with the issue of fraudulent iTunes gift cards. And based on what I am reading here, it looks like the person suing has a strong case. Feels almost like a bait and switch to a degree. No one likes to be screwed around with when making a purchase.
Now here [...]

Eucalyptus Accepted, But At What Price?

So despite Eucalyptus having links to what Apple apparently deemed as adult material, even if bordering on ridiculous, it seems as if Eucalyptus was dealt a whole new opportunity. Eucalyptus has been granted a space in the app store.
Sadly the controversy does not end there. At $10 for what most people say to be the [...]

iTunes Video Store For The iPhone Preview

These days, iPhone users have become so accustomed to enjoying the app store that we might find ourselves at a loss when being asked to imagine using the iPhone without access to it. So now imagine what it’s like without a “store” for movies and videos?
According to this recent blip, this feature is not only [...]

Microsoft To Sell You Ten Songs A Month

The idea of saving $30,000 or instead just paying $15 per month seems fairly obvious to most. And clearly, this ad from Microsoft starts off pretty strongly.


But here is the problem - based on what I am reading here, you are only able to keep ten songs at a time [...]

Sony Finally Opens Up

Sony is sniffing glue again apparently, as they once again visit the land of “too little, too late”. It seems that in a sudden vision of the obvious, they are seeing the errors of their ways with DRM and in turn, ridiculous amounts of control over their provided content.
The best example of their “change of [...]

Greetings!
I’m interested in showing you this nifty little program for Mac OS X for controlling iTunes remotely — as in, you don’t have to open iTunes at all. Named CoverSutra, this application gives you a spotlight for your entire iTunes library. You can program shortcuts to control playback (among other things).
I found [...]

Bluetooth 3.0 Just Around The Corner Yet Still No Transfers For iPhone Users

For most mobile users, Bluetooth is nothing new. But when coming from another mobile phone over to the iPhone, considering it is like a brick, you really will want to use a Bluetooth headset should you wish to try and talk while driving.
But what about using Bluetooth for transfering files and documents? While Bluetooth 3.0 [...]

Musical Pricing Schemes Over At iTunes

My wife lives on iTunes, it’s where she tends to spend a fair share of her disposable income a month. and with the music selection made available, who can really blame here. I mean, iTunes has practically everything a music lover could ever want, right?
This is what I, amongst a host of others used to [...]
