dear god apple why do you insist on insulting me

anyone using this?

Ubloody2...

fuck you steve jobs I don't find this funny

sif apple is going to know who half your collection is. Who else has Stockholm Monsters and Children's Hour?

I still don't use Genius and I won't use this.

If you don't have U2, then you should! or atleast Apple think so..

Apple basically sells overpriced crippleware to make gullible white people feel special.

I don't feel special I feel insulted.....

I said indie they say I should like mainstream crap

no wonder people share music outside of these places

"Looking at your selection you may like VAMPIRE WEEKEND"

Seriously, VW is Apple's answer to anything remotely tagged "indie".

Oh cool another step forward for the Apple dictatorship.

Truly they are worse than Microsoft ever was. Wake up people.

YEAH! By providing a (really odd, mainstream) opt-in service that you can choose to write on if you wish they're pretty much Mugabe.

Will be another Buzz and die a pointless death me suspects...

PING Privacy Is Not Guaranteed

seems easy to allow personal details without being too aware of that.... given people will have signed up to ITunes with real names so they can buy stuff and then to link that up with the social networking part of the app could raise some privacy concerns here.

Blizzard recently tried to force real name identities for some of its social networking and got blasted badly and then backed down.

At the end of the day Apple is a company obsessed with telling people how they should think, act and look and that is why I will never use their products.

People will tire of it eventually and other players are quickly catching up, the hay day of i-products will end soon enough.
