Most of my devices are Apple products and I'm pretty heavily embedded in the Apple ecosystem, but I still keep up with other platforms and use them regularly because 1 - I just simply love technology, and 2 - it's beneficial to my career to keep up with multiple platforms. And I know plenty of Apple users who are the…

Funny, since most of the Apple haters I talk to still think Apple mice can't right-click.

Ha, the truth. The truth, which the author failed to mention in the "article", is that it's only happening to him on certain models of bluetooth devices. It's a problem with the particular bluetooth device, not iTunes.

You must be using it on Windows. It works flawlessly on my Mac.

I'm using an older Macbook Pro (2011) that doesn't have BT 4.0 and it does't happen to me at all. It sounds like it's a headphone issue since it's only happening with certain models.

This. I have different email accounts for a reason. I use Boxer as my email app and it has the ability to show all your accounts in one inbox but I never do.

It depends on how you use it. If you tend to download a lot of media from other sources, iTunes would be one of the last programs I use to play that media. But most of the media I have, I bought from the iTunes store. Movies, TV shows, music, podcasts, etc. In that case, it's a pretty good media hub - especially when…

It must be a function built into the headphones, then, not an Apple/iTunes function. I have 3 pairs of bluetooth headphones and two bluetooth speakers, and never encountered the issues you're having.

Same here. iTunes never pops up on me when I connect bluetooth headphones or a bluetooth speaker.

You can turn that off. I can't remember how off the top of my head since I did it a long time ago.

I just mean if iTunes Streaming (or whatever it's going to be called) has everything Spotify has, plus exclusives, there wouldn't be a reason to keep your Spotify subscription. I guess that depends on whether or not Spotify ends up getting exclusives to compete with Apple. But seeing as how Spotify has been getting…

So far, I haven't found anything on Spotify that wasn't on iTunes. And for anything that may not be there, you can upload to iTunes yourself. The new streaming service is going to be build into iTunes, rather than be it's own app/service. Whatever iTunes has, it will have.

You do if you want it to be ad-free and want higher quality music files.

Why would you have 2 subscriptions?

Convenience, cost, no need to organize/sync music files, music discovery, etc, etc. A lot of good reasons why people prefer streaming.

iTunes by far has the most robust music library. I tried Spotify, but it was just missing too much that I had in my iTunes library. And with the ability to upload music through iTunes Match (a HUGE disadvantage with Spotify), their new streaming service is going to be a no brainer. Right now, Google Play All Access…

No it's not. It has a ton of functionality and usability issues. Landscape mode is useless, Artist View is just an endless list of songs instead of being able click on an individual album, no queuing, album view should have an option to list by artist, etc. It's basically a bare minimum app and is far behind pretty…

I really hope this means Apple's music app is getting completely overhauled from the ground up. Because right now, it sucks. Trent actually did a pretty good job on the Beats Music app and if he can get the default music app to be anything like that, I'll definitely be using it.

In 2014, LG spent $5.9 trillion won ( $5.3 Billion USD) on R&D.
