  • Apple Music Classical begins rolling out to international users

    Actually the more I engage with the Apple Classical app the more it acts as a foil to the Music app. It's just light years better.

    The full titles and not truncating is the main difference. It's not limited by two lines as Apple Music is. I can see the full title of each song.

    Browse is also light years better. Objective breakdowns of Composers, Periods, Instruments (!) etc, rather than like in Apple Music, which is a presentation of genres and playlists I have no interest in (nor have any control over what is presented).

    The app experience is great. Hopefully they adopt it for the Music app.
    How does the app experience differ to the Music app's?
    It doesn’t truncate the song title. Seems to scroll more quickly.

  • Update adds 8BitDo controller support for Apple devices

    Flipping pages in iBooks with the 8BitDo Zero is fun.

    This is great news, I am certain to use it. 

    However spatial audio isn’t a sell at all for me. Not only does it make most songs worse, but it’s even worse for classical music. Lately I have found myself disabling it entirely because of the way classical or even electronic music sound with it. It’s a completely overrated feature that should only be enabled for songs that were recorded in 3D audio. 
    Agreed. Symphonies with large orchestras don’t work in Atmos. There are a few binaural recordings in Apple Music that sound great through headphones (esp.  Rite of Spring) but these have been recorded with a dummy head mic, not mixed afterwards to sound spatial. This captures the positioning of the instruments and makes you feel like you’re sitting in the audience.
