To be fair, at least EA games are competitively priced next to their competitors.

Their games would have to be like £250 before we could start comparing them to apple.

Not true. What with all the DLC and micro-transactions they are adding to their games the real price is probably closer to that £250

Except you are not forced I have not been forced. It is not on my phone I have downloaded nothing, nor has anyone else that does not have that feature turned on.

Re the download you're the exception to the rule chumlar. Most people woke up to find it on their phones/pods/dildo's/whatevers.

That aside, you're missing the point: the fact you cant see it doesn't make it all fine and dandy. If I walked in to your house, without your permission ofc, and took a dump in your spare room would that be ok with you because you mostly hang out in the kitchen? Note that my teedlepoop will be indelible. You may not see it, but it's there and it's presence is controlled by neither me or you, so you can't get me to do some cleaning. What if you started to receive ads based on the fact that my poop was in your spare room? What if your house price went down or your insurance went up? What if it wasn't even your house and you actually have extremely little say in what goes on there? What happens if you suddenly have a whole bunch of new neighbors you don't like and didn't ask for?

I know my example is made in teh funnies, but make no mistake: what's going on here is very serious indeed, and will have far-reaching consequences.

Honestly, fuck Apple. Not only for doing something like that in the first place but for making iTunes so bad and for making it so hard to get rid of the album afterwards. My net at home is still freaking slow and I know about every kb in and out (generally speaking, where possible), if I was an Apple user (lol) and they pulled a stunt like this I would not be an Apple user for very much longer. I get annoyed enough with stuff like Real Racing 3 on my Note 3. I start it up to show off how good it looks and it's like "hang on there matey I need to get this 300mb update first lol". Every time.


Am I the only one who just plugs their phone into the computer, drags MP3 and FLAC albums over to it (in Explorer, with no fancy bullshit middle-man apps) and then just plays them?

I use wifi transfer now...works like a dream on any computer with wifi obviously.

I dumped this huge pile of steaming cow dung in your drive way. It is a gift from me to you, so enjoy

A bit exaggerated, but you get the idea. Actually I take that back. I'd compare U2 to a steaming pile of cow dung any day of the week

Apple have released a removal tool to get rid of the U2 album

 

[caLLous]

A "removal tool" to delete an album from your own music collection? Whatever next.

They will probably try and patent it too.
