Further examination of Apple’s new social network reveals more problems.
To review from last night’s post:
1. It’s awkward, at least, that it runs in iTunes and not a web browser. There’s no Back button, no way to copy the address of a page and share it outside of iTunes. Also if it were just a website we’d be able to access it from an iPad now, not some time in the future.
2. There’s no way to Like the song you’re listening to. In other words there doesn’t seem to be any integration with the music-listening app, even though the social network is embedded in it.
3. It’s a ghost town. Obviously they’re recommending all the musicians they have, because they have nothing to do with my musical interests. Same with users. ![]()
