    .Mac was never free. You also have absolutely no argument here. MobileMe was never free. iTools was never changed to a paid service.

    In your graph iTunes revenue is less than 1 billion over 2,6 years...

    So it appears 'DATA' are pliable and (your) graph really is BS.

    I don't think you'll have to worry about iCloud for the simple reason of who Apple is competing with to bring you this service. Android and Google. Unless Google/Android suddenly go away (doesn't look like that's happening anytime soon), Apple needs free online services to offer a similar experience to what Android users get with the built in Google services.

    No. Jobs announced 15 billion tracks.

    Announced in June 2011. Chart stops at Dec 2011

    iTunes started selling music in 2003. So the first FIVE bloody years are not on the chart!

    NO. You cannot read a simple chart and your numbers are wrong.

    The BS is all coming from you. Stop it.

    Really? Let's see your numbers then.

    Or are you just reciting the fanboy gospel without substance?

    The floor is yours.

    Please just stop talking. You've permanently embarrassed yourself here. Let's not go for "completely discredit"... though you're close.

    Hey guys, do you know if iCloud will support some kind of podcast syncing?

    Like syncing for mp3 podcasts....



    Is there a iCloud support group that I can email to get additional info on this?



    Thanks

    I would think so, but I don't have any, so I can't confirm that at all.

    As it's not even out yet, no.

    Ah, so you don't have the numbers, eh!

    And you are reciting the fanboy gospel blindly.

    Small surprise...

    This thread has grown stale.



    We don't know what Apple's plans are so it's all conjecture at this point. Let's let the cards be dealt and see where iCloud goes.
