The Good

Apple Music on Echo speakers! • Songs can be set as alarms

The Bad

Only works on Amazon’s own Echo speakers (for now) • Alexa can’t favorite songs • Requires paid Apple Music subscription

The Bottom Line

Turns out Apple Music controlled with Alexa on Amazon Echo speakers works pretty well, and it makes Apple’s HomePod look overpriced.

Apple will never admit it, but the arrival of Apple Music on Amazon’s Echo speakers is an obvious admission that HomePod isn’t getting the job done. Read more…

Remember Apple Music Connect? Well, Apple’s killing it.

sudshr47 December 14, 2018

For Apple, music and social just don’t mix.

According to 9to5Mac, the company is quietly killing the social component of its Apple Music service, Connect.

Apple has reportedly been sending artists on Apple Music a notice saying they won’t be able to post to Connect anymore.

“Today we’re streamlining music discovery by removing Connect posts from Artist Pages and For You. This means you’ll no longer be able to post to Connect as of December 13, 2018, but all previously uploaded content will still be searchable until May 24, 2019,” the notice said. Read more…

Get Beats Powerbeats3 headphones on sale for 50% off, plus 3 free months of Apple Music at Best Buy

sudshr47 November 27, 2018

“Missing out” on Cyber Monday is barely even a thing anymore — retailers are keeping those rare deals up for days or even the whole week afterward, because they know people will still hop on it.

Our favorite post Cyber Monday deal right now comes from Best Buy: Get the Beats Powerbeats 3 earbuds for $99.95 instead of $199.95. Yup, that’s literally half off, and they’ll throw in three free months of Apple Music, too.

Beats is one of the brands giving Bose a run for its money when it comes to headphones. Seeing them on sale for anything more than 20% off feels like a glitch in the simulation. Beats are especially clutch for iPhone users as they’re equipped with Apple’s W1 chip, helping your iPhone automatically connect to your headphones, improve headphone battery life (12 hours here), and improved Bluetooth performance.
