Comments on: Why Apple has to iCloud-ify the next version of iTunes http://gigaom.com/2012/06/28/why-apple-has-to-icloud-ify-the-next-version-of-itunes/ Sun, 26 May 2013 02:45:21 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Joseph Ostiguy http://gigaom.com/2012/06/28/why-apple-has-to-icloud-ify-the-next-version-of-itunes/#comment-859814 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 20:59:19 +0000 http://gigaom.com/?p=537548#comment-859814 i think it would be a great new feature to add to allow developers to make third party apps that can be added to itunes (like moodagent?) id also like to see a forum/chat room feature ware users can post about apps that they would like or features to apps they already use. rather than developers spiting out apps at random hoping for a best seller. other than that, allow use to buy ring tones form the desktop version of itunes again, i cant find anything on the mobile itunes let alone ring tones.

You can’t move your library around to different directories, for example. Yes, I know about the import function, but it totally screws up some things (podcasts aren’t properly associated to their podcast, they end up being regular audio tracks; movies and video will sometimes get lost) and entirely ignores others (PDF books, which you must manually reimport one-by-one). You still can’t really maintain parallel lossless/lossy libraries.

Let’s hope they do.
