Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
Gosh darnit, there's still no 128GB iPod touch....
On the bright side - new iTunes icon!
iTunes 10. With iTunes set to surpass physical CD sales next year, so new icon with no CD.
And I'll have to experiment with this stuff:
Social features: New feature called Ping. Facebook and Twitter meet iTunes...social network for music. Follow favorite artists and friends, find out what they're listening to and talking about. Customized top-ten songs and albums lists based on the people you follow. Showing off artist page for Lady Gaga with posts, favorite songs, concerts, etc.
Steve Jobs just put the final nail in Myspace's coffin.
Aw, the new Apple TV is adorable!
Ditto the new Nano.
There's a new Apple TV? What for? I have an Apple TV, and it's of dubious inherent value.
you can stream netflix, youtube, and podcasts from apple tv now.
If this did hulu, that would be awesome.
But it no longer has storage. So for the iTunes store it only does rentals. I much prefer to buy tv shows and movies instead of renting them.
Which reminds me to get that 1TB drive for my MacBook Pro....
But it no longer has storage.
Eff that. My main function for mine is backup for my iTunes library. Good. I have no envy. Youtube and Netflix I get through TiVo, and I'll always put that ahead of an Apple TV. They're cute, but they're hardly actually useful.
Beyond viewing trailers all in one HD place. Which, you know, I guess not that important.
OTOH, only $99 now. That's kinda tempting.
Ditto the new Nano.
It really is wee and cute.
