Ping 2.0? Apple Music revamp rumored to downplay Connect social network feature
What they need to do is to have Connect aggregate from other social media sites, make it a one stop source for tweets, instagrams, etc. They could then add some "premium" features unique to connect. This would lower the barrier for artists to not to have to support "yet another social media channel", be more convenient for users to track the goings on of their favorite stars, and still make it possible for someone to do something creative with connect. Sometimes I think that the folks running Music/iTunes are so afraid of messing up their cash cow that they are myopic about coming up with unique value added (almost like Browett taking over retail and becoming so laser focused on efficiency he forgot about the experience). -
CVS continues Apple Pay snub, launches barcode-based 'CVS Pay'
sirlance99 said:How is this any different than the Starbucks App which does practically the same thing and is a runaway success?
I do agree though that CVS is going the wrong way with this. I much prefer to use my Apple Pay or NFC payment's as a whole.
What will/should happen is that folks will figure out how to utilize aPay within their custom loyalty apps and therefore forgo the additional expense of additional POS hardware. The clearer technical path is to mimic SB for now, but expect that to change going forward (once the legacy of MCX finally goes away).
