    Yes, it is a ridiculous world we live in when real-life engineering problems make my entitlement to consumer goods secondary. Don't they know who I am??
    How immature. No need to be so aggressive. It’s ridiculous Apple announced a product as early as they did. There’s nothing entitlement related to that at all.

  • The Wall Street Journal bets Apple News partnership will lead to new subscribers, not cann...

    Wow. Apple led me to believe I could get all of the WSJ and LA Times. And now it seems I can get only a fraction... a small fraction of their papers. Now since I live in Canada that fraction may be even lower. I was unable to find a single article from those newspapers on the app today. So I got exactly 0% of my news today from LAT and WSJ even though I subscribed and spent an hour looking for them. There were some things in the News+ service I liked, but this part of the service strikes me as fraudulent. And equally concerning is that I don't understand if both the papers and/or Apple is selecting and curating which articles I'm allowed to read. I want freedom, not censorship.

    What are you saying? Which word are you talking about? What is your point? But thanks for the reminder of a great movie.
    Really not that hard to figure out…. “Censorship.”  Nothing is being purposefully denied the reader in what they can read based on what’s offered. Perhaps the other person meant to use a term like “limited” (in selection, etc.)?

    When I was a kid I delivered a newspaper 6 days per week. I did not ask the publisher for 50% of the profits. Apple needs to get over itself. 
    Were you paid anything for delivery? Were you employed by a delivery service or such? I didn’t see mention of volunteering. 

    I get your point, but Apple would be delivering, in a sense, so would seem appropriate compensation would be due. But the key word, and to your point, is “appropriate”. Heheheh.

    Starting off, everything you loved about the original AirPods has been carried over. They are still a pair of true wireless earbuds with great sound and solid battery life.
    I sure don't love the sound. The original AirPods do not sound great.
    They can never compete with big cans, but for ultra portable, super convenient pods, they sound great. Perfect for the gym, walks, work calls, and streaming. It’s fine.
    BeatsX sound so much better AirPods! And not because they’re big... they’re smaller.
    Interesting. I have both and find the BeatsX sound too “tinny” for the treble. I much prefer the sound from the AirPods. To me, the AirPods sound more full, crisp without reverb. Quite interesting hearing others’ thoughts and preferences.
