“The software is functioning as intended,” said Amber.
“Wait,” I asked, “so it’s supposed to delete my personal files from my internal hard drive without asking my permission?”
“Yes,” she replied.

C'mon Sup Forums, this isn't Orwellian enough for you?
it is of course it is. But Would they really do that? Have they been allowed to do that? Is this by design or is it glitching?
Im betting its by design. And we won't be able to get away from this stuff anymore.

>w-would you steal a car?
Applecucks btfo
It's right in the agreement form that it's by design
Why is this news to anyone? That's what you get for using Apple.
If you put anything on an apple device they own it. Apple is cancer
>using apple
>paying for music
>subscriptions
Deserved everything she got and more. Hope she learns her lesson.
This is why they discontinued the iPod because they couldn't control what was on it (no internet access)
...
Itunes is best free audio player available.
I tried others, like clementine and new winamp and you know what? They are utter shit.
Its proprietary, goyim. Don't worry about it.
>new winamp
there's a new one? been using v5.6 forever and it's been just fine.
everyone on Sup Forums uses MusicBee
i dont know who recommended that pleb shit to you
>winamp
>shit
You're shit, m8
I can understand using their hardware, maybe even their media suite if you're a pretentious faggot. I'll judge you for both, but I'll understand.
Why the fuck anyone would willing use iTunes ever, let alone for two decades, is beyond me.
Reminder that you only rent your music from Apple, just as you rent the use of your shit phone.
This is exactly what macfags deserve, relying on such a closed source company.
see iTunes is absolute dogshit compared to Winamp 5.6. Please stop torturing yourself.
holy fuck. you are fucking retarded. itunes is fucking terrible.
I'm computer ignorant by Sup Forums standards. Why is iTunes that bad?
they own a lot of pics of my cock and balls then
They still make iPods
Slow and clunky as fuck for basically no reason
His fault for not having backups.
He "painstakingly" collects and organizes 122GB but never bothers to back it up?

Remove this man from the gene pool
>ever using the worst DRM ever invented.
Apple faggots deserve everything they get for supporting this cancerous software.
>two decades worth of music
>using apple
itunes couldn't even open when i had 3000 songs
Checked.
Remember when everyone loved apple for standing up to the FBI and Trump?
Remember when Apple leaked a bunch of celebrity slut nudie pics to cover up some dirty globalist shenanigans?
I've hated Apple for decades and they just keep proving me right
i do not remember that pr stunt but i do remember the fbi going to a jewish company
>Have they been allowed to do that?
do you read the terms of service, I'm sure by this point they are allowed to exhume your family members
Remember everyone, be sure to buy digital: movies, music, games. Don't buy physical copies, those can get scratched, and they'll eventually fail! If you buy digital you'll always own the product, unless the license expires. Or we go under as a business. Or we shut down that server. Or we decide to no longer house those files. Or you didn't read the fine print. Other than that, you own it, under license of course.
Remember to pirate everything and break drm every chance you get.
Also make backups.
He did have a backup. He's just warning other users about this risk.
No, no, that's the wrong way to go. Be sure not to own anything, just rent it. Why do you even need to own the raid on bluray? You don't, just rent it, get the license for $9.99.

You deserve to lose your money for trusting a company as predatory as Apple. Everyone knows you back up your shit. Didn't you learn anything from when Megaupload went down?
He did have backups though, he even says he backed them up a few weeks beforehand. Good thing you focused on the completely irrelevant part (losing music) and not the actually important part (Apple straight up in your shit doing as they please).
Funny you mention that, there was a breakfast show in the '80s that was showing off CDs and how durable they were. The video was on JewTube, but it was took down and it's never been uploaded since

Good thing planned obsolescence and all that shit doesn't exist and is a pure paranoia fantasy. Good thing Apple weren't sued for exactly that then and didn't try to purge any mention of it from the internet. I guess people just don't understand that with Capitalism you don't move forward, you just get stuck in a rut of Groundhog Day, I mean if you didn't have to replace the cheap expensive shit that breaks the first time you take it out of the box where would those companies be that manufacture it? Not the NYSE I can guarantee you that.
i'm posting from the year 2000, what the fuck is an ipod
Jesus Christ, get foobar already. I won't give you too much shit because rutracker is godly for music torrents.

>As a freelance composer, I save WAV files of my own compositions rather than Mp3s. WAV files have about ten times the number of samples, so they just sound better. Since Apple Music does not support WAV files, as they stole my compositions and stored them in their servers, they also converted them to Mp3s or AACs. So not only do I need to keep paying Apple Music just to access my own files, but I have to hear an inferior version of each recording instead of the one I created.
I do not understand Apple at all. It seems to be in a struggle against object orientedness.
everyone knows you rip wav files into wma what the fuck who wants to download some shitty ass mp3s off of napster? go!zilla ftp search is better than that trendy napster shit
You only have access to your music so long as Apple's servers recognize your account records. Long before Apple many music and video subscription services went under/or just user data and people lost their entire libraries because they were too stupid keep their own back ups.
Reminder to install Linux and make your own backups.
>Im betting its by design. And we won't be able to get away from this stuff anymore.
Implying there is only Apple out there. Never used them, never will.
Apple, iTunes, are the worst fucking things.
The worst fucking things.
Aimp3 is god tier m8.

have I traveled back in time?
