I bought two recently and, as someone else noted, I have not been blown away by the sound quality or “room-filling sound”. At $299 the didn’t break the bank. However, the lack of line-in for my vinyl record player still leaves me unhappy with the product overall. That clearly is designed to protect Apple Music subscriptions. Three out of a possible five stars, IMO.

?Music is an embarrassment of riches. Will I get any work done today?!? Beats 1 Radio is amazing. Some expectable promos, but no commercials. I tuned very early and heard Brian Eno-Ambient 1: Music for Airports. One of my favorite LP's of all time…

Here's all I need to know....I just opened the redesigned Music app, turned on Beats 1 Radio and out of nowhere, one of my very favorite artists and albums of all time-Brian Eno's Ambient 1: Music for Airports. I haven't heard this on the radio sinc…

It was a no-brainer for me to go 128 GB. I don't regret it. 32 GB would not have worked at all and 64 would be too tight for my uses. I don't even think about capacity limits and enjoy my phone so much more. having said that, I also think I'll keep …

I think I read Apple's exclusive consumer electronics deal is ending in 2015. I could be wrong and I didn't search around for the link. It would be hard to believe all this work will come to nothing.

This is a step in the right direction. I've dragged .jpegs and .pdfs into Notes for quite a while. Synching between iPhone and mac with no Evernote fussiness is a killer feature. I wonder if Apple could do a full fledged sketchpad app. I use the G…

Apple has 'historically' been terrible at services? My word! Has anyone heard of anything called iTunes? It forever changed the entire music and video distribution industries....so funny how Googlers coopt and circumscribe the definition of "service…

Shane Cole is insufferable on this podcast, "Apple is never going to make a car...get over it." What?!? Says you, Shane?
