    Sunday Morning Call - "Hi Jimmy, its Tim here, Apple Music failed and all your ideas are crap so I'm afraid you have to go, I'm glad we gave it a shot but I guess it just wasn't meant to be".

    Wouldn't be too fussed if he called up Eddy with the same message!

    Clearly there is anger building within Apple.
    - Developers getting asked to do dumb things to iTunes and are destroying it in protest.
    - Lovine wanting to use humans instead of machines for curation, its great to give a few people some jobs but its not scalable to Apples needs. Loving is so out of touch with technology.
    - Lovine and Eddy too public, telling stories about calling up Tim to ask him stuff just amateurish and makes me shudder.

    1) It's Iovine, not Lovine.

    2) If Apple Music fails it's because of Apple, not Iovine. Apple bought Beats IP because Apple get it was worth the money and something they couldn't build on their own.

    3) The human curation was the biggest benefit to Beats streaming.

    Why you mad?

    Now that we have decided what you will be listening to, we thought we would decide what you would be allowed to watch.  And if since you think that's great, Just wait till you cant see what the new Safari won't can do for you.

    Not mad. I do think Jimmy Iovine is a bit of sleaze bag though.

    I believe that the best way to do a TV product better than Apple TV , is to have gaming on it. Its about time to replace the clunky / big hardware of XBOX 360 or PS3 which both by the way already provide a streaming service and it wouldn't be difficult for Microsoft or sony to release any update similar to what Apple can bring in terms of subscription to the table.

     

    What Apple can really do is utilise its existing system (App Store) to bring an Apple TV such that, where one starts playing a game on his mobile while travelling and ends up finishing it at home on there Apple TV. Similar to continuity features.

     

    This would be the key anything else and you are doing nothing new that Roku, Google Chromecast, Netflix, Amazon Prime has not solved.

    Dr. Dre's new album:

    "In a track featuring Eminem called Medicine Man, the rapper is heard saying: “Ain’t no one safe from, non-believers there ain’t none/I even make the bitches I rape cum”."

    > Is this true?

    That looks accurate, and that is wretched.

    Apple needs to dedicate much more attention to Apple TV and continue to ease the ability to get content from computer to ATV.  FINALLY in El Capitan, Apple added the AirPlay button to QuickTime Player!  *rolls eyes*  What took THAT SO LONG?  

     

    SyFy, Amazon Prime Streaming and FOX News for ATV please!  We also need a way for ATV to turn on my UHDTV when I start AirPlaying something, and coordinate it so it only plays once the TV is ready!  Same thing for switching inputs when I start AirPlaying something!  2160P support too please!

     

    Next we need to be able to AirPlay anything to a CarPlay capable car!

    Faux Newz? Apple TV already has more than enough fictional content.

    Me, I want a Murdoch free Apple TV- no Fox TV, No Fx, no NGTV, no Faux Newz Channel, no Faux Out of Business Channel or anything related to NewsCrap and 21st Century Fox.

    Seriously.
