Re: [iPad] a little cold water

 

Love my iPad mini 4. Use it all the time. I don't carry music on it as I am a subscriber top itunes music. I was a Spotify subscriber for along time until I found iTunes Music had better curation.

Have you tried the highest rated email app?
With 4.5 stars in iTunes, the Yahoo Mail app is the highest rated email app on the market. What are you waiting for? Now you can access all your inboxes (Gmail, Outlook, AOL and more) in one place. Never delete an email again with 1000GB of free cloud storage.

Your not that different. Many that I've talked to feel the same way. I'd like to be able to download the components I want to use for iTunes.

I hate that my audiobooks are no longer on my iTunes. They lived happily there since iTunes started. Why they moved them I'll never understand.
Now I have to use a separate app for them.

You're not alone wishing for a breakup of iTunes.  The tech press has been calling for that for at least a couple of years now.
