  @9thATEEZ Any issues with iTunes for you? You can do it via Windows/Mac also, no need of iPhone

  @Krytopsy @EA iTunes hasn't had DRM on music in a very long time, yet somehow music piracy really isn't the problem it used to be back when it was all locked down. Remove the DRM, people will buy your product.

  Down to my last $4.14 on my iTunes account - do I use some of it for the song I'm thinking of downloading only to then remember a song I would rather have bought, or do I wait?

  @myyoutae Not necessarily. A lot depends on how much of the gp use a streaming service, and how consistent they are. In this case, it's even different: iTunes chart is impacted by sales, something that Spotify doesn't do

  @MagicBardi @arithadon125556 You got your first #1 on iTunes in years. Settle down lmao. Let’s see that Spotify debut tomorrow. But again, more importantly, there’s no video so Atlantic didn’t believe in it.

  @WillFaucherVFX Use iTunes and do a backup, my phone had the same issue and Apple doesn’t let users clear your cache easily. 💩

  Absolutely appalled at the @Apple service in India. I’ve had an issue with the Add Funds option for ages and nothing, nothing has been done about it so far. It’s getting increasingly difficult for me to renew my subscriptions because iTunes just won’t let me add funds

  First, some context. By early 2004, the iPod had become the world's most popular music player. Over 2 million units sold. 30 million songs downloaded from iTunes. But Apple faced a massive problem:

  @AINEE07275 @svnwithu_ @Koobidivines They changed the rules for the BTS store to avoid the filtering issue, and it's really not hard to buy on itunes and amazon. We always seem to hear these kinds of excuses when it comes to supporting Yoongi.

  @WonderWomaNinja My hubby has access to everything and vise versa. We use one iTunes account because he has issues with passwords so we get most of each other’s texts & calls. My accounts are used for recovery of his accounts. After 30 yrs if I had something to hide, I shouldn’t be married.

  @AbhishekMarkets I would say that most people use iPhone because it is easy to upgrade. In android there is no full backup option like itunes that backs up passwords, notes and logins also. If you think you know some free apps that backup whole android (u can exclude login) let me know

  @Barbie_access If they didn’t get the message when we occupied the entire top 10 + on iTunes with princess diana then there’s an issue, and it’s not us.

  @Savage16May I sold my house. Bought a cheaper place out of town for lower taxes. And to avoid the bullshit water, garbage fees. Cancelled all unnecessary subscriptions. Down to only one internet tv provider no satellite. No iTunes.

  Mariah Carey iTunes Chart (@MariahCharted) reported 31 minutes ago

  @iTunes Please look into .@MariahCarey's "Type Dangerous" single, despite its dominance on every platform some fans are having problem purchasing the single and it has not appeared on any iTunes Chart despite selling a great amount with 4 hours of its release (VERY UNCOMMON)!

  @Naija_PR Wrong choice of words… the real billion movers are not the problem. It’s the $50 iTunes boys that brings shame to the industry

  has anyone else run into an issue where the macOS music app (aka iTunes) just skips to the end of mp3s? i'm losing my mind because it's happening for the tracks on my last album and the files play fine everywhere else

  @1000kilobytes I'm starting to believe it's futile, I've been opening radar issues since 2015 about iTunes (now Music) library management, and the bugs are still there 10 years later

  My issue is People had to basically plead atinys to purchase lemon drop and it’s remixes on iTunes which couldn’t even go top 10 and then fell off after day 2 despite costing the same price as a lollipop but when they saw the gap for number 1 on bb200 they all got energised to make big moves.

  False. Music “purchased” through iTunes, you’re not buying the music itself, you’re buying a license to use the music. While it has the illusion of ownership, you don’t actually own it, ie you need to sign in and authorize your computer for the music files to work, you are limited to burning the songs to disc 7 times total, songs not downloaded or backed up can disappear if the content right holders pull their license with Apple, not allowed to sell or trade or anything beyond personal use with the music, etc.

  @SuspenseP35 @BoldExaltus The 12 movies, likely including The Shawshank Redemption, can be downloaded from platforms like Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, iTunes, Google Play, Vudu, or Microsoft Store, depending on your region. Check availability for each title, as not all may be downloadable. Use legal platforms to avoid piracy issues. Services like JustWatch can help locate specific movies.
