I'm pretty excited about the update! I looks like it will be a fresh update on something that is getting a little old. I haven't dug into the details but watched the video and was pretty impressed.

iTunes Radio is going to be a huge competition for Pandora and frankly I don't know how Pandora will hold up. What are the chances the Radio portion provide feedback to control systems?!?!?!?

You think the itunes abomination is going to take on Pandora's simple and slick interface? Especially on an iPhone, chances are slim.

The benefit pandora has is it's headstart, which may be enough. Anyone who says Apple doesn't have a chance in this market is crazy. They almost single handedly control digital distribution. They sell something like 75% of all digital music. 25 or 30% of music as a whole.

Pandora is a cockroach to Apple. If Apple didn't think they could beat them, they'd just buy them for $3bil and shutter it.

 Wow!  IOS7 is starting to look a lot like android....... 

Radio will be built into the iDevices. That right there wins them 10mil users who are too lazy to download an additional app. iTunes sucks but it works and its consistent so they lead the industry.

Pandora style services are the future. Very few people will waste time building play lists and buying music when they can just create a station and listen to their favorites and other songs they haven't heard or that are brand new. I have a couple thousand individually purchased songs in my iTunes library. I only buy the tracks i like. I haven't purchased a song in over a year. I never use the iPod app on my phone. I only use Pandora now. If Radio is as good or even close ill drop Pandora.

title reads "Apple shows off completely redesigned iOS 7 at WWDC, coming this fall"

then look at the photo!!! LOL. Boy, it is so different i almost didnt recognize it!!

I did recognize one thing from the superior Android experience though. A quick settings menu! but wait, it is not a complete rip off. Android swipes down, iOS looks like it swipes up!!! lemmings!

You guys have been copying features for 5 years. You should be honored that your team finally has something worth copying.

 You droid users are just upset because Your Daddy's home.  

BTW.  I had to download the Sonos app on a clients HTC whatchamajiggy of the month today.   What a complete unmitigated clusterF@ckk.  (that's right 2 k's).

I thought those droids were supposed to be easy?  Just trying to connect the thing to his WIFI network looked like I was about to sign him up for the CIA's newsletter.  WTF.  CEIED would've crapped his pants.

I said....Where's the settings button?  I don't know.

Oh here it is under the home button.

Makes perfect sense.  Settings=Home.  Of Course. 




 

At least there's the option to move the settings button wherever you want it!

Did they get the idea from the iphone?  lol.

Sure the iPhone can move the setting buttons, but everything inside there is still many button clicks away.  I hate having to press 3 buttons on my iPhone to turn my wifi on and off.  Android...... 1 click babeeeee!

I use Android and Apple on a daily basis.  I use PC and Mac on a daily basis.  Each has things it does better and worse than the other.  Someday maybe I'll get around to making a list.....

Holy moly! I guess the Windows Phone ad is right.....they do like to fight. :)

I just picked up the new HTC One and love it. I am also picking up a Mac Mini this week. WTF? Is that even possible? What kind of stares am I going to get?

:P

It'll be a very short list if you're going to try to figure out what a PC does well.  

Why would you turn your WIFI on and off?  And why is it such an important tool for you that you care about how many button clicks it takes?   

Why are you running around turning it on and off?  What's the purpose?
