Oh, I am sure it has something to do with my impatience. I don’t see why I should ever be required to know a secret handshake, so-to-speak, to listen to music I own on a device I own.
It’s all still there on my computer. All the cds are gone from my iPhone library in the cloud and on the phone. I can not drag and drop any of that burned music to my phone from iTunes on my Mac (I haven’t actually tried in a couple years, though.) All the purchased music is in the cloud and can be downloaded if I want, but my connection out here in the country is very slow and limited to a gig a month. I did download a lot of it to my last phone then when I got a new phone they did it again. Instead of moving my music to the new phone they made it available in the cloud again. WHY? Because they want me to use the fucking cloud and I can’t with the state of my set up. So I suddenly fall out of the target market for Apple and just lose a lot of work in the process. Apple shrugs. It shouldn’t require secret handshakes anyway. It’s juvenile.
