Text: Reasons Why Ping Is Useless

jasonsmithtx:

This is a quick review of the Ping service that iTunes launched

  • iTunes has plenty of information about what I listen to and what I buy, and yet there are no recommendations from the start. Even their lame genius feature in the store attempts to do this.
  • Finding people isn’t tied to twitter or facebook, but emails addresses. So, I’ll never try to find anyone.
  • The artists you can follow are lame. I’m not interested in them, and I already don’t follow facebook pages because I find the updates to be inane usually. I am interested in these people because of the art they create, not their photos of them on tour. Unless you’re Tom Waits. I’ll follow him on any network.
  • There is also no artist sign up so local/small bands won’t be on it. This will not aid in music discovery, or bringing smaller artists recognition. What a waste of an opportunity.
  • It is completely tied to iTunes, and what if you listen to music they don’t sell? Then you have no way of sharing that with your friends.

*All of the above opinions are subject to change based on user adoption, and improvements to the service Apple makes, but it looks like I will continue to use last.fm and just asking my friends in person about music.

Why is apple so bad at paying attention to independent artists?  They do a decent-ish job with indie developers…

Answer: I wasn't sure if that was you asking about the game or the person you reblogged. It's a scene from Mass Effect 2, if it was you asking.

about the game.  fortunately several people have assured me that 

Luckily, that is just a conversation tree and not options of action.
