I love how this apple fanboys get all worked up. Enjoy your apple products and stop getting offended if someone thinks it's crap. It's not YOUR product. You are NOT apple's CEO or something. Jeez!
I still have Zune software from 5 years ago, and to me its the best audio player I have ever used. I have tried Itunes, didn't like it, went right back to Zune.
This doesn't look like the considered view garnered from years of experience though, it looks like an angry response to something more specific. I means iTunes has been nothing but an Apple advertising/sales portal for ages now, can he really be this angry just because of these things?
Nah, that's TOO kind. "APPLE build SYSTEMIC GARBAGE and KILL THEIR CUSTOMERS SYSTEMICALLY and they owe customers TENS OF BILLIONS in damages " is more like it. EX: GOOGLE TESSA MAJORS. 18 year girl bassist moves to NYC for college and within weeks is DEAD simply because she foolishly bought the notoriously-murdereous APPLE iPHONE (which killed tens of thousands of customers who were MUGGED like Tessa). There are tens of thousands more stories just like Tessa's. EVEN THE STATE AGs SAID APPLE ARE MASS MURDERERS....but the AGs all choked and refuse to enforce laws b/c APPLE can make one phone call and get those AGs fired or jailed! (MONEY CORRUPTS EVERYTHING.)
@@nexxxus7498 It's mind boggling to read some of the comments beneath Beato's videos. Apple is crap??? Give me a break. Okay, nothing's cheap in this world and Apple aren't shy when it comes to charging you but they're the most user-friendly for creativity and the new M1 has outstanding speed, battery life and features. Apple any day.
@@nexxxus7498 guess you are the idiot here. I’ve been servicing my macs and upgrading and replacing parts until parts started to come soldered into the boards. Now, with M1 chips everything is integrated to the chip so there’s no upgrade path there either. I still have my macs, not one, but hey, there’s a lot more fun to be had on my PC, built for me by me just the way I wanted. I understand what Apple makes brilliantly and it’s hard to move away from these things but you don’t sound like a knowledgeable guy in this subject otherwise you would understand what people are discussing here.
Jobs had an interesting interview about this. He basically said that the engineers were the soul of the company and once the accountants started running things it was game over. There is also a perspective about true intelligence being able to take complexity and make it simple…. Something Apple is no longer able to do.
The same thing happened to the broadcast media industry. It went from being a creative entertainment industry that you could advertise on to primarily an advertising industry governed by accountants.
Except all the ones that don’t. Funny how I have the same charger lead I got with my iPhone 5 and can charge my 11 with it. Oh and also my iPad nano from nearly a decade ago? I can charge that with the same lead. Only Apple thing I have that needs a different charger is my very first iPod nano from 2004 ish. Still works. Whereas nearly every edgy hipster Samsung phone I see has a cracked screen.
@@ilyanagalen9320 You can charge anything with a lightning connector with a lightning charger, but its not recommended because of the changing charging standards over time. Same connector, different power requirements. Charging at a lower speed won't damage anything, but the newer or bigger devices (like ipads) were designed to be used with higher wattage chargers, even though its the same physical connector.
@@Kronkulus9282 never had an issue. Can charge all the phones I’ve had since the 5 and all the iPads with the same charger and they don’t have any issues tbh.
@@ilyanagalen9320 Yep there won't be any issues, you'll just get slower charging speeds than the device is capable of if its newer. Like iPad chargers are either 10 or 12 watts if I remember correctly, while old iPhone chargers are 5 watts. Fast charging devices go even higher than that I'm pretty sure. Higher watts just means faster charging, but there technically were "new" chargers released with each device to utilize these new charging technologies.
@@ilyanagalen9320 edgy hipster samsung phone haha what? Samsung is one of the biggest phone companies with Android being the most used system. Apple is the hipster one
I liked MacBooks until they started soldering everything to the logic board. Meaning if a $20.00 part died you gotta buy a whol new $800.00 board to fix the problem. This is kinda like buying a new car to replace a tire.
Exactly. I just got YLOD (yellow light of death) on my PS3. The reason is because Sony gets the processor soldered to the motherboard and the lead balls get broken overtime. This is a scheduled obsolescence big shame big time. I called Sony and the guy who is supposed to solve the problem never heard about YLOD bullshit.
This is a legit issue. The lack of upgradeability on their laptops is kind of ridiculous. You can complain about Apple doing it, but most Windows laptops now come with soldered RAM, so it's not a uniquely Apple issue.
I think that was always their real motto. I remember decades ago asking my brother (big Apple fan) how I can arrange where a document was stored in the file system. His answer was you can't, they don't want you to have to think about where it is stored.
I hear Rick's frustration. I used to work for Apple and am a long time Apple fan, but recently things are getting really asinine. As if Apple is being ran now by people who couldn't care less about Steve Job's philosophy and more on how they could get that bonus so they can buy that dream yacht. There has been so many instances when I almost lost my job because I empathized with the customer's frustration - being a customer myself.
America, as a whole, seems to be following suit. The pride to create something truly great has been pushed aside in favor of max profitability. It does not seem that companies want to attract - and keep - customers with excellence and reliability. But, they want to do it by force. Thankfully, there is still competition in America and many parts of the world, so eventually someone will develop something better and cheaper.
Steve Job Philosophy was to steal ideas from other companies and sell them as his, for way to much money. mouse and GUI are from Xerox, OSX is a BSD Unix branch on darwin desktop. And design that is just SGI industrial design with an apple.
The only real thing that's changed is Apple being more brazen about effing over customers. I used Macs before Jobs was reinstated in the 1990s and after, usually not by choice. I used to have an Ipod (the first and last Apple product I personally ever owned). All Apple products are is headaches and incompatibility. They've ALWAYS been terrible. Jobs was just a salesman putting shine on them. Discovering my Itunes library of legally-purchased songs unusable (Itunes music was riddled with DRM for years until 2009) when my Ipod was stolen was the very last straw. Steve Jobs made Apple worse and never cared about the customer. He didn't even care about his own daughter. He ONLY cared about sales, same as Tim Cook. Jobs was just a better liar. being run* There have been*
Being an almost 40-year fan of Apple, I felt nothing but huge disappointment and betrayal for the last 10 years. I ve finally decided to take on a venture to look for the lost spirit of innovation elsewhere, i.e., Linux and FreeBSD.
So what ? Before you bitch about think about the fact that you aren’t the target market for that display. So why bother ? Even with the Stand it comes upto 6k which is 4-5 times cheaper than the competition that the XDR display is competing with. Yes it was dumb on their part to announce a stand for 1k$ but most displays in those ranges do have pricey stands. Just consider the 1k$ as part of the actual XDR display.
I have a slight snobbery but it's about Nikon, not Apple. When it comes to computers, whatever works and is cheapest. But for my camera gear, I like having matching Nikon lens hoods, and even correct Nikon battery storage caps. We're not talking thousands, just maybe $30 instead of $10 for a cheap rubber lens hood. I still have all that I bought 30 years ago and they still look great. What about Dyson? I think they copied Apple's arty-farty design and pricing philosophy. $500 for a stick vacuum cleaner. But it's so beautiful and clear and you can see all the garbage! And the desk fan - yeah it's unsettling to pay $300 for a $19.95 desk fan. Rarely does any branding elegance win me over. Koehler plumbing fixtures for instance. Junk compared to the far more practical and well built Delta stuff. But I still have my Nikon F4 and all of the available interchangeable finders. Their used resale value isn't tempting enough for me to unload, all film gear has plummeted except the lenses because those can still be used on the pro-level digital cameras. I love the F4. I love it so much that if I could buy a digital back for it, I'd scrape the money together in a heartbeat. My D90 is great also, but to be able to wield that mighty F4 with a 40-megapixel full fram digital back... yow!!
FUN FACT! others mock me b/c when I'm home, I'm almost ALWAYS listening to my OWN music, but it's not ego or such: I'm listening to all kinds of stuff, for many reasons, like seeing WHAT HOLDS UP on many repeats and what doesn't hold up. I also have over 20,000 bands (and boy are my arms tired!) and I can't even rememeber them all, so having them randomly pop up keeps my memory intact! Come to think of it, I COULD use that rating system, ha ha. As it is, if I do an improv that blows me away, I put "WOW" at the end of the title or "NICE" as my code that these are the A material! (That's likely FASTER then using Apple's dumb system!) ALL I WANT FROM APPLE...is some futuristic tech: A FUCKING COMPUTER THAT DOES ITS JOBS CORRECTLY. THAT'S ALL I WANT and I can't have it. (My macbooks glitch in EVERY way, as they're built to!) IT'S ALSO IRONIC WE CALL IT UPGRADING, b/c each year Apple INTENTIONALLY decreases the QUALITY of each product (to FAKE "bigger Profits" and company "Growth" for shareholders) as ALL Capitalists do. (ex: that's why a Pepsi switched to high fructose corn syrup from sugar.) NONE OF THIS IS LAWFUL. It's all systemic FRAUD, malpractice, larceny , etc. BUT WHO YA GONNA CALL? DIRTY KOPS?
After buying ONE Apple product ever, a macbook, I learned the most important truth about Apple. You may buy their product, but you'll never own it, they do. You just payed for the "honor" of using it
No offense, but MS owns Windows, you do not. MS has taken the same route as Apple. Make everything a subscription model & as soon as you stop paying it becomes much less useful.
Not as much as they're iPhones, I mean at least you have root access on macbooks. Oh also I know android phones don't have root access either I'm not dumb
Ethan York, I don’t know about you, but I do rate mine. Not for myself, but for others who may be interested in what I find good, not-so-good, or just plain bad. Not everything on my computer or in my music collection is five-star. Some songs on some albums are mediocre at best. Some suck. I’m not so close-minded that every song I own needs to be a 5-star favorite. For me to consider a song to be five stars, it’s going to have to be one of my favorite songs of all time. I have well over 10,000 songs in my collection. News flash: They’re not all five stars! Some merely interest me. Some I just plain don’t like. But if I buy an album, I take the good with the not-so-good.
The rating used to be required for the shuffle feature. Less stars meant less playtime. That only makes sense if you have hundreds of songs, but the least rated are the ones that are maybe never played or just once.
@@y.u.doodat9133 Me too. Not all Albums I own I listen to regularily and not all albums only consist of prime songs. There are a lot of Albums were several songs are just (bad) filler. I also use this to then randomly play only 4-5 star songs for instance.
xcver, Yes, and those 4 & 5-star songs compose what iTunes terms our "Favorites". And not every song I like or own is a "Favorite". Just as not every food I enjoy is a favorite.
I bought a MacBook in 2007, and honestly it was the best laptop I ever owned. When I got it I was a student, and once I became a political rapporteur at the European Commission in 2010 I used it for all my research and report writing until about 2015. In my private time I also used it for my photography photography to record my music. It was such a reliable little machine, and having always used windows prior to getting it, I loved how simple and intuitive everything worked. It really increased my productivity, both professionally as well as creatively, and I never had a problem with it, everything just always kept working like a charm. When I finally upgraded my setup in 2015 I went with Apple again. But no Apple product I've had since has lasted longer than 3 years, and most didn't even make it that far. They design their products for obsolescence, and the quality is gone. It's a cynical business model. In 2020 I finally threw in the towel and left Apple behind. We've since replaced my phone, my wife's phone, both our iPads, our laptops, and an iMac that my wife used (she's a professional photographer) with Android and Windows products. It's an improvement over the modern Apple (and didn't cost anywhere near what their Apple equivalents would have cost us), but it still doesn't come anywhere near the Apple products that I enjoyed using in the past. My wife had never used anything other than Apple computers for her work, and she feels the same: switching to Windows has felt like an upgrade over recent Apple products, but she misses the quality of the Apple products she used when she first started out as a photographer. Apple supposedly sells premium products, which is why we were prepared to pay extra for them. But their marketing strategy in the past decade has been the exact opposite of that of a company that sells premium products, and the quality is gone. The only thing that remains premium about Apple products is the price tag.
But if you have the Money to update each time they switch connection standards, Apple is still pretty cool if you have all Apple devices for your home intertainment systems, but you better have a good yearly income (or a sucker of a bank manager)
Sadly this is how everything is, not just Apple. They don't care about your needs, just making money. If you want a good working program u have to get some freeware thing like foobar
And it didn't just become the worst recently. It's always had an issue with constant crashes and freezes if you have a large music collection, creating duplicate files on its own, the list goes on...
This is absolutely wonderful! To hear someone so fully into Apple calling them out for their crap is just the best. I went down the Apple rabbit hole, thinking my digital life would be gloriously integrated and work perfectly... It didn't. It sucked. It was an exercise in eating thousands of dollars only to throw it all out later. Never again!
@@BigUranium238 Jobs was the inventor of planned obsolescence for electronics. Mostly for their Iphones. I owned one once way back. So I updated the OS and now the phone worked like crap. Oh, you need to upgrade your phone. I said no, I need to dump the Iphone like it's on fire.
Patty Jeddy Indeed, Steve was the architect of planned obsolescence, but he wouldn’t stand for messy user interfaces or confusing or redundant menus in iTuned.
@@PattyJeddyfun I have a $200 Motorola Android phone. It works just as well as any Samsung or Iphone I've ever had...which is to say: it's not flawless, but it gets the job done. I will never spend $900+ on another phone. There's no reason to.
I'm not the smartest guy in the world, but I recognized a long ago that Apple phones were not for me since wouldn't be allowed to upload my music to an iPhone. I've been an Android and PC user ever since and don't regret it.
You can upload music that you own, just not use the apple system as a source to distribute copies. Similar restriction apply to Android/google/PC world - I have both, each has strengths and flaws. Use what works best for your needs.
how’s it remarkable, most of those devices most likely need their batteries replaced ( as with any old device ) i’ve took care of my products and they work fine
@@cheopys True, one of *Apple's* biggest screw ups has got to be when they made the ignorant mistake of trying to get into the computer game.... They just really weren't equipped to go heads up against Giants like *Microsoft* etcetera & they *ended up putting out garbage devices with crap software* systems!!
@@cheopys Microsoft Windows is not bloatware. If you buy a PC from HP or some company they put bloatware on it. You can go to computer stores have them build a better PC for cheaper and get zero bloatware with Windows which is a far superior OS.

You'd think someone who's smart enough to rise to the CEO position would realize that if you please the customers, you're going to end up pleasing the shareholders. Tim Cook is a schmuck.
I think after Jobs passed, their mission went from being the best to being the most profitable. And the things they do to achieve that are getting way too obvious.
Thats why Tim Cook the former Chief financial officer is now CEO and not the chief of research and developent. Apple make the most money they can with the old crap and then RIP like kodak

The purpose behind Apple's exclusive cords is half ignorance, half ego.
At least now that "weird port" is becoming standard, and being multiple use. But Apple is now trying to fight the industry on that, rather than commit to sticking with the new port so people don't have to replace their equipment or buy adaptors yet another time in the future, Apple is now saying governments mandating phones stick to USB-C is "stifling innovation", what they really mean is they just want the ability to arbitrarily change their ports again rather than stick with industry wide compatibility.

As an IT guy, I can tell you that Apple has always been this way when it comes to their design philosophy. Jobs was just really good at selling products.
@Ronit N Hot really a fair comparison. Elon Musk founded Zip2, PayPal, Tesla, SpaceX and he made them popular / successful. For all it seems, Elon Musk is the real deal; he's something we all should try to achieve / reach. And not in terms of wealth or popularity but in terms of how many things he managed to do. For me, what he managed to achieve with SpaceX alone is just brilliant. But hey, that's just me.

Hardly. More like Apple would have a wheel you could handily disconnect from the bike and use on another bike. I can charge any of my Apple stuff from the same charger, copy everything from one phone to another effortlessly. Meanwhile Microsoft’s would come with a puncture and every day you’d have to stop by the roadside to apply yet another patch, and you’d have to deflate and re-inflate the tube every time. Even worse, your bike would randomly stop working so had no choice but to apply the patch.

They might let you add have an adapter for $300 but only if they're feeling generous and the charger's gonna cost too. Wait you said you wanted software to come with your phone? Now you're just pushing it buddy.
Agree on almost everything. Apple used to be an innovating, original and a simplistic company. Now it’s become greedy af. No fast charger included for iPhones, no 3.5mm dongle, the repair cost for a broken rear glass of an iPhone X or XS is crazy. Software is often broken. Missing features, bugs, redundancy, over-complicated commands and more. Don’t know what’s caused all of this but I don’t like it and I’m missing the old-fashioned Apple.
Ferdinand Vanko I had to change my iPhone 6 Plus last month after 4 years due to the “touch disease”. Something Apple never acknowledged and they charged $200 for repairs. Also on that same phone I had the home button and back camera not working and it was very laggy and slow. Never mistreated the device, this was my experience though. Now I have an 8 Plus and should hopefully last me longer.

The problem is that he's wrong about just about everything he is complaining about! Thunderbolt is backward compatible with both Firewire 400 and Firewire 800. You can easily charge the phone and listen to music over headphones. Rating songs in iTunes is so you can adjust the frequency of playback in randomly queued playlists (but is not necessary of you don't want to use it, and you most certainly CAN record FaceTime calls. Just launch QT, select New Screen Recording, select the area you want to record (the FaceTime window) then the disclosure triangle next to the record button to activate the internal microphone (or other audio input device).

CRAPple peaked around the time of iPhone 4s when they updated their iOS to flat 2d icons (because it was "trendy"). Everything got worse. Useful every day commands disappeared or were changed making them non-intuitive. This infuriating time wasting strategy was adopted throughout their apps and their company. What a shame. Mr Beato, Thank you for making these appropriate statements to your mass audience.
I totally agree Rick. Apple has lost its way and since they no longer seem to know how to innovate, they have increasingly morphed into a company selling non-hardware products.
I've literally never owned an Apple product in my life and I never will! Apple is overrated, overpriced crap and people just keep eating it up and buying their products! and not the mention the expensive attachments that they need now as well just to have a fully functioning computer or laptop. It's insane to me and ill never understand it.
Why would I need to own one to have an opinion on it? I know how they operate due to people in my family having apple products and that's how I know that apple is not for me.
All the years after this video was made, Apple has gotten worse with soldered memory chips, overpriced upgrades, crappy phone cases that cost an arm and a leg, etc. Sad that Rick Beato was a prophet of how Apple would go downhill.
It's hilarious to me that the stereotypical Apple fan sees nothing ironic about their brand loyalty, given Apple's penchant for legitimate human rights violations around the world.
I would never buy anything from this greedy company. Their products are horribly overpriced and no better than Samsung. They hide billions of their obscene profits offshore to avoid U.S. taxes, screw over people attempting to get things fixed and brag about being to advanced technically. Bullshit. Most Apple lovers I know have problems with their phones and computers. The worst thing is the fools who claim they buy Apple stuff because it's so good and reliable but every year when a new iPhone comes out they are lined up to pay $1000 for it. If you're gonna replace it in 12 months, why are you paying so damn much for that "reliable" phone? Hey idiots, if a phone can't last a year without breaking then you should get some sense and stop buying that brand. Americans love to show off their wealth and choices but now when I see someone with an iPhone, I just laugh at them for being such a brainwashed sucker.

Sad thing is Windows (and Android) have gone in the same direction. Everything is becoming a "service", with a storefront, and you get to control and own the things you pay for less and less, and your user experience becomes a product that works for them, and not the other way around. Everything on your computer and phone wants you to pay rent.

My I phone 4 was a great smartphone, owned that one for about 4 years. Held and could take a beating. The only problem I have with apple are the iOS updates. They’re sure as hell intended to slow down your device!
I've been an Apple user since 1991. I rarely bought anything on iTunes. I never liked the way the licensing worked. One thing you can do is burn stuff to a CD and then reload it into iTunes and you won't have that problem.
@Russell White Yeah, I know it’s “outmoded” tech, but it’s not that old. Apple still had optical drives until 2012 and you can still get an external one. A lot of us Apple users keep our old machines because of old software we still use too. That is one reason they’re a pain, but at least the machines still run when they’re obsolete. And you can still buy a cd used for $2 or $3 and import it into iTunes rather than spend $10 on a download. You could always do that.
@Russell White The reason to still buy CDs is getting to be the same reason a lot of people buy records. CDs can’t be retconned into being politically correct. Physical copies of things aren’t going to be remotely censored.
Agree 1000% about iTunes. It used to be a fantastic music organizational tool. I could load my entire CD collection in and then into my iPod make great playlists and burn them to CDs. It was simpleq. And they had running totals at the bottom so you knew how many total songs, albums and playlists. Now it's all about tapping on the pretty pictures. I've changed computers, transferred the songs in from the old hard drive and I can't get them to appear in the library.
I had similar problems. The solution was to copy your entire music sub folder into the directory of your new iTunes. Also, in the new iTunes preferences, make sure that new iTunes “points” to the correct folder. iTunes can be inscrutable.
But they did come out with a brand new technology called, ‘It’s now in purple!’ So I’m going to trash my previous $1000 Apple investment to get the color purple.
Also 11,000 for an desktop computer that is dogshit. You could mine bitcoin for that money but instead you have a computer that is 5 times the price of a better performing windows based PC
I love the intro!! Yep. I've never gone with Apple because of their we-won't-be-compatible-with any-other-company's-hardware attitude. You can't even tether from an Apple phone to an Apple TV or computer! I hate Windows, but at least I can simply hook my Android up to any computer (other than an Apple device), and save my hotspot. When you live out in the country, you often have only your phone's internet to power your TV, etc. Rick, you're just making too much sense for most of today's younger listeners! That iTunes rant is perfect. What a bunch of nonsense! Love, rating, dislike, stars??? But this is all there on demand!! People request that crap for some obscure reason. And I used to love iTunes as well. Completely ruined! Great upload! It's reassuring to see an intelligent human being calling this out for what it has become... CRAP! Thank you once again (-:
They got rid of the jack connector so there is only one connector and you are force to buy a stupid adaptor... What are they gonna ruin next? get rid of all connectors, using magnetic wireless charger so you are stuck with the airpods that cost $159.00?? Apple is getting worse every year.
Marco Campobello stfu fanboy. Nah just kidding man. I completely agree, Apple loves to rip people off more and more each year, and it’s finally catching up to them with the iPhone XS and XS Max
Apple almost had me sold on iphone with the 5s up to 7. My company gave me one and I had a supposedly unbreakable Android. That broke 3 times. Meanwhile I dropped my caseless iphone out of a truck repeatedly and it survived. Then came the software updates. Then came the fragile bricks that couldn't withstand being looked at for prolonged periods. Then I got back into Linux and realized Mac is just a stupid distribution of linux
Usually I hear it the other way around apple fanboys saying that apple is so great and beautiful and android devices suck. Well hurl a rotten apple at them!!!
I don't like Apple; never have, and never will. _It just works:_ except that it doesn't. It's also shrouded in mystery. I've never heard anything great about it. I just see that people keep buying it. The only thing I can glean as to why people buy it is that it's a really pretty machine. Not a good enough reason to buy a very expensive computer.
Their cult following includes waiting, for 2 weeks in a line outside their store that wraps round the block twice, to buy their latest product. Brainwashed numpties.
It was still all about marketing and hype... and not much else, even then. In fact probably even more so under Jobs, who not only directed the marketing and hype but who was himself marketed and hyped. The fanboy cult elevating their saint to godhood, upon his death. Jobs introduced the overpriced, 'style over substance' approach. Unfortunately, a lot of gullible idiots fell for it.
You nailed it. Apple was best in 2007. It continuously went down hill from there. Ask yourself WHY you have purchased 10 cell phones in 10 years! I convinced our entire engineering department to switch from Linux to Macs for software development. 10 years later we are switching back to Linux because OSX is clearly being downgraded to a social media client not a machine for serious work.
For proprietary production software, OS X isn't bad at all. But the last time an Apple product was seriously worth it was the IIGS, and even then, that faced competition from the Commodore Amiga, but for the most part, the II series was the last time Apple was truly good.
The hardware was truly good, but even us Amiga users were dying for a Unix based operating system. When Steve brought Open Step into Apple, and it became Darwin, it was like a dream come true. I still love the core of the OS. I love the simplicity of application forks (.app bundle) vs crappy windows and linux installs... but the desktop efficiency is getting STOOPID
Don't you mean in 2011 it started to go down? What's really happening is that it's the hardware between the chair and the keyboard. When you go through that much hardware and all of it dies, it tends to NOT be the manufacturer at that point.
NintendoNoah, Mac OSX is the best OS on the market because it's both easy to use and secure since it is Unix. Windows integrated open source into it's already failed OS and continues to have vulnerabilities and serious issues keeping data together to this day. When you've used macs for 30+ years like I have and they've all been refurbs and you've used OS X since it's infancy and never had a virus never had any issues with anything really, that says something about the company. The only issue I've ever had with any Apple product is the iPhone and that's due to planned obsolescence.
Oxygen = Just breathe for free and enjoy life iOxygen = $900 per bottle and $300 for a refill, while waiting for the shipping of the refill, hold your breath or just suffocate
You would also need an apple charger to charge the bottle cap and the bottle to be able to hold the air which then you need to charge or else it will turn in to Co2
Never bought any of their products and never will, seeing how they enslave their foolish customers. expensive crap with very short planned obsolescence
Nice job missing the point entirely. Apple has not always been crap. Not even close. Its true, they are in fact crap now. But for the years that Jobs was around…their stuff was actually worth the purchase price. Not anymore.
Steve Jobs never invented anything. He was however, a master salesman. He just put others ideas into easy to use products, by directing a talented team of engineers. Apple died when Steve did.
That is true, but at least he was making decent overpriced products. In the moment they are just overpriced garbage. The only thing left good in mac are the screens.
Harvester Of Tone The problem is, we shouldn't need to buy every iteration. A windows pc will be compatible even after 5-10 years. Apple seriously had ruined consumer compatibility, & just started to focus on money & money. I still don't know why people buy Apple. There are a million products better than that. Switch to Google & windows.
Don't forget how much of a QA guy he was too; that's the key part here. Nothing went to market that wasn't fanatically aligned to his vision, which did *seem* to work for their customers
Florian Kirchner Sure, lithium batteries get slower and all of that. But don't you think its very strange that they do that when they announce a new phone? Also, they don't even ask you permission, they secretly do that like they don't want you to know
People who keep their phones long enough for that to come into effect will care much more about random unexpected shutdowns than a bit of performance. It just doesn't make logical sense that they'd do it to encourage upgrades.
@@masonsmithYT as if Samsung's curved displays were easier to make. It's a marketing policy to brainwash people to believe that it's really worth the price tag.
Crazy how far they’ve fallen. I remember 15 years ago when people used to call them “overrated” but those were usually those not working in music or film - their hardware/software combinations were the best then. The criticism never stopped but now it’s come true. Their products are sub par, their servicing is predatory. They’re running on the fumes of a once great company.
Not really. Even 15 years ago you could get a similar PC set up for less price and depending on what you did you already could do it on the PC like Photospop, Premiere, Fireworks. PCs were always ahead in 3D Design like 3DS Max or Blender. And it just moved away from there all the time. Nostalgy and archaic systems at the receivers end are the only business reasons to remain on Apple nowadays
xcver Logic and Digidesign hardware/software was easier to work with on Mac back then than Windows. There were far fewer compatibility issues. Walk into almost any recording studio in 2005, and you’d likely find a Mac stuffed inside a closet running the show.
The Apple hate never goes away in that big crowd of people. Meanwhile Apple is doing great. Not fallen in any way. And sane people don't care about specs. They care about usability and experience
@@morten1 You mean like intentionally degrading performance in old devices? Or creating proprietary *screws* so people can't perform maintenance on their own products, or take their own products to a third party repair store? That kind of usability and experience? Or maybe it's the experience where people can't buy Kindle books on iOS due to Apples anti-competitive app-store policies. Such a great "experience" that Apple is creating for their users today.
I worked as a WFH Apple Advisor. Absolute worst workplace I have ever worked. Racism is rampant, biased toward people of colour. Passive aggressive behaviour, constant threats of being fired, but they will use kind words to explain that you could get fired, even for doing exactly as instructed. The people who get promoted got hired for all the wrong reasons (racism), they don't have the skills, experience, or abilities; and have no clue what they are doing. They can't agree on anything, and as a result people get fired when they get caught in the crossfire of supervisors arguing about what you can and cannot do. Extremely stressful workplace where discrimination and exclusion is the norm. Avoid at all cost, for your own sanity. apple does not care about it's customers. Nothing but a greedy corrupt company.
More like Steve Jobs died and had a bunch of useless retards under him. A fucking chimpanzee could probably make the same decisions being made by these guys.
Steve Jobs Compared the iPhone 4 design to a Leica camera. iPhone 4 and 5 were awesome. All the iPhones after the 4 and 5 look boring and bland. @Adam and Eve
Not creativity, they lost their dignity. Scumbag Tim CROOKED is all about profits and appeasing the stock market. Hence, poor quality in their products ever since.
Exactly my thoughts. Many of the great companies over the years were started and led by great visionaries like Jobs. Then the visionary leaves, the accountants, business-people and bean-counters replace them. People who focus solely on profit margins. The Mac was Apple’s cream, they constantly kept it updated. It was Steve’s baby. Now the Mac goes years without a refresh, but the IPhone, IPad and watches get refreshed every few weeks! Why? Because they sell in high volume, easier to sell, Tim sees more profit in them.

This doesn't look like the considered view garnered from years of experience though, it looks like an angry response to something more specific. I means iTunes has been nothing but an Apple advertising/sales portal for ages now, can he really be this angry just because of these things?

I understand what Apple makes brilliantly and it’s hard to move away from these things but you don’t sound like a knowledgeable guy in this subject otherwise you would understand what people are discussing here.
Glued together single chip processor and ram
Jobs had an interesting interview about this. He basically said that the engineers were the soul of the company and once the accountants started running things it was game over. There is also a perspective about true intelligence being able to take complexity and make it simple…. Something Apple is no longer able to do.
Everything goes to crap when the bean counters get involved!
The same thing happened to the broadcast media industry. It went from being a creative entertainment industry that you could advertise on to primarily an advertising industry governed by accountants.
I'm an engineer and I agree with that view. Could you find the link of this interview?

Funny how I have the same charger lead I got with my iPhone 5 and can charge my 11 with it. Oh and also my iPad nano from nearly a decade ago? I can charge that with the same lead. Only Apple thing I have that needs a different charger is my very first iPod nano from 2004 ish. Still works. Whereas nearly every edgy hipster Samsung phone I see has a cracked screen.
@@ilyanagalen9320 You can charge anything with a lightning connector with a lightning charger, but its not recommended because of the changing charging standards over time. Same connector, different power requirements. Charging at a lower speed won't damage anything, but the newer or bigger devices (like ipads) were designed to be used with higher wattage chargers, even though its the same physical connector.
@@Kronkulus9282 never had an issue. Can charge all the phones I’ve had since the 5 and all the iPads with the same charger and they don’t have any issues tbh.
@@ilyanagalen9320 Yep there won't be any issues, you'll just get slower charging speeds than the device is capable of if its newer. Like iPad chargers are either 10 or 12 watts if I remember correctly, while old iPhone chargers are 5 watts. Fast charging devices go even higher than that I'm pretty sure. Higher watts just means faster charging, but there technically were "new" chargers released with each device to utilize these new charging technologies.

I liked MacBooks until they started soldering everything to the logic board. Meaning if a $20.00 part died you gotta buy a whol new $800.00 board to fix the problem. This is kinda like buying a new car to replace a tire.
Exactly. I just got YLOD (yellow light of death) on my PS3. The reason is because Sony gets the processor soldered to the motherboard and the lead balls get broken overtime. This is a scheduled obsolescence big shame big time. I called Sony and the guy who is supposed to solve the problem never heard about YLOD bullshit.
Yep, greedy company.
Ha
This is a legit issue. The lack of upgradeability on their laptops is kind of ridiculous. You can complain about Apple doing it, but most Windows laptops now come with soldered RAM, so it's not a uniquely Apple issue.

Old slogan: think different.

I hear Rick's frustration. I used to work for Apple and am a long time Apple fan, but recently things are getting really asinine. As if Apple is being ran now by people who couldn't care less about Steve Job's philosophy and more on how they could get that bonus so they can buy that dream yacht. There has been so many instances when I almost lost my job because I empathized with the customer's frustration - being a customer myself.
America, as a whole, seems to be following suit. The pride to create something truly great has been pushed aside in favor of max profitability. It does not seem that companies want to attract - and keep - customers with excellence and reliability. But, they want to do it by force. Thankfully, there is still competition in America and many parts of the world, so eventually someone will develop something better and cheaper.
As if Steve jobs didnt get rid of flash to be "brave"
Steve Job Philosophy was to steal ideas from other companies and sell them as his, for way to much money. mouse and GUI are from Xerox, OSX is a BSD Unix branch on darwin desktop. And design that is just SGI industrial design with an apple.
The only real thing that's changed is Apple being more brazen about effing over customers.
I used Macs before Jobs was reinstated in the 1990s and after, usually not by choice. I used to have an Ipod (the first and last Apple product I personally ever owned). All Apple products are is headaches and incompatibility. They've ALWAYS been terrible. Jobs was just a salesman putting shine on them. Discovering my Itunes library of legally-purchased songs unusable (Itunes music was riddled with DRM for years until 2009) when my Ipod was stolen was the very last straw.
Steve Jobs made Apple worse and never cared about the customer. He didn't even care about his own daughter. He ONLY cared about sales, same as Tim Cook. Jobs was just a better liar.

Being an almost 40-year fan of Apple, I felt nothing but huge disappointment and betrayal for the last 10 years. I ve finally decided to take on a venture to look for the lost spirit of innovation elsewhere, i.e., Linux and FreeBSD.
Just a year later, Apple is selling a monitor stand for $999.
I am going to order one, and then I review it.
Be more economically feasible to pay someone to hold the monitor for you...
You know, you can build an upper midrange pc for 1000€...
That's saaad
Where can I build up my tent to get it the other day?
So what ? Before you bitch about think about the fact that you aren’t the target market for that display. So why bother ? Even with the Stand it comes upto 6k which is 4-5 times cheaper than the competition that the XDR display is competing with. Yes it was dumb on their part to announce a stand for 1k$ but most displays in those ranges do have pricey stands. Just consider the 1k$ as part of the actual XDR display.
That apple pro stand was about the dumbest thing I've seen. $1000 to hold a screen.
Actually it was smart
Free marketing for their brand

I have a slight snobbery but it's about Nikon, not Apple. When it comes to computers, whatever works and is cheapest. But for my camera gear, I like having matching Nikon lens hoods, and even correct Nikon battery storage caps. We're not talking thousands, just maybe $30 instead of $10 for a cheap rubber lens hood. I still have all that I bought 30 years ago and they still look great.
What about Dyson? I think they copied Apple's arty-farty design and pricing philosophy. $500 for a stick vacuum cleaner. But it's so beautiful and clear and you can see all the garbage! And the desk fan - yeah it's unsettling to pay $300 for a $19.95 desk fan. Rarely does any branding elegance win me over. Koehler plumbing fixtures for instance. Junk compared to the far more practical and well built Delta stuff.
But I still have my Nikon F4 and all of the available interchangeable finders. Their used resale value isn't tempting enough for me to unload, all film gear has plummeted except the lenses because those can still be used on the pro-level digital cameras. I love the F4. I love it so much that if I could buy a digital back for it, I'd scrape the money together in a heartbeat. My D90 is great also, but to be able to wield that mighty F4 with a 40-megapixel full fram digital back... yow!!

"Who rates their music?!" - Rick Beato
Hahaha that’s amazing
Laughts in CDJs
To be fair I used to do that on Windows Media Player and still do on the occasion I actually use it. Never did on iTunes though
I use it to make my "smart" playlists.
FUN FACT!
others mock me b/c when I'm home, I'm almost ALWAYS listening to my OWN music, but it's not ego or such:
I'm listening to all kinds of stuff, for many reasons, like seeing WHAT HOLDS UP on many repeats and what doesn't hold up. I also have over 20,000 bands (and boy are my arms tired!) and I can't even rememeber them all, so having them randomly pop up keeps my memory intact!
Come to think of it, I COULD use that rating system, ha ha.
As it is, if I do an improv that blows me away, I put "WOW" at the end of the title or "NICE" as my code that these are the A material!
(That's likely FASTER then using Apple's dumb system!)
ALL I WANT FROM APPLE...is some futuristic tech:
A FUCKING COMPUTER THAT DOES ITS JOBS CORRECTLY.
THAT'S ALL I WANT and I can't have it. (My macbooks glitch in EVERY way,
as they're built to!)
IT'S ALSO IRONIC WE CALL IT UPGRADING, b/c each year Apple INTENTIONALLY decreases the QUALITY of each product (to FAKE "bigger Profits" and company "Growth" for shareholders) as ALL Capitalists do. (ex: that's why a Pepsi switched to high fructose corn syrup from sugar.)

"If it's gonna be in my collection, it's gonna be 5 stars, who rates their music!?"
Top quote 2017
Ethan York, I don’t know about you, but I do rate mine. Not for myself, but for others who may be interested in what I find good, not-so-good, or just plain bad. Not everything on my computer or in my music collection is five-star. Some songs on some albums are mediocre at best. Some suck. I’m not so close-minded that every song I own needs to be a 5-star favorite. For me to consider a song to be five stars, it’s going to have to be one of my favorite songs of all time. I have well over 10,000 songs in my collection. News flash: They’re not all five stars! Some merely interest me. Some I just plain don’t like. But if I buy an album, I take the good with the not-so-good.
Djs probably
The rating used to be required for the shuffle feature. Less stars meant less playtime. That only makes sense if you have hundreds of songs, but the least rated are the ones that are maybe never played or just once.
@@y.u.doodat9133 Me too. Not all Albums I own I listen to regularily and not all albums only consist of prime songs. There are a lot of Albums were several songs are just (bad) filler.
I also use this to then randomly play only 4-5 star songs for instance.
xcver, Yes, and those 4 & 5-star songs compose what iTunes terms our "Favorites". And not every song I like or own is a "Favorite". Just as not every food I enjoy is a favorite.
I bought a MacBook in 2007, and honestly it was the best laptop I ever owned. When I got it I was a student, and once I became a political rapporteur at the European Commission in 2010 I used it for all my research and report writing until about 2015. In my private time I also used it for my photography photography to record my music. It was such a reliable little machine, and having always used windows prior to getting it, I loved how simple and intuitive everything worked. It really increased my productivity, both professionally as well as creatively, and I never had a problem with it, everything just always kept working like a charm. When I finally upgraded my setup in 2015 I went with Apple again. But no Apple product I've had since has lasted longer than 3 years, and most didn't even make it that far. They design their products for obsolescence, and the quality is gone. It's a cynical business model.
In 2020 I finally threw in the towel and left Apple behind. We've since replaced my phone, my wife's phone, both our iPads, our laptops, and an iMac that my wife used (she's a professional photographer) with Android and Windows products. It's an improvement over the modern Apple (and didn't cost anywhere near what their Apple equivalents would have cost us), but it still doesn't come anywhere near the Apple products that I enjoyed using in the past. My wife had never used anything other than Apple computers for her work, and she feels the same: switching to Windows has felt like an upgrade over recent Apple products, but she misses the quality of the Apple products she used when she first started out as a photographer. Apple supposedly sells premium products, which is why we were prepared to pay extra for them. But their marketing strategy in the past decade has been the exact opposite of that of a company that sells premium products, and the quality is gone. The only thing that remains premium about Apple products is the price tag.
The thing is, Windows is crap too. So if both are crap, I guess save some money and buy the cheaper crap (Windows).
It's like buying a $20 t-shirt for $100 because someone printed 'Gucci' on it in cheap ink.
2020 was the year Apple got good again lol
iTunes, ten years ago, was an app designed for users to listen to music. iTunes, today, is an app designed for Apple, so they can sell music.
That's why i left apple just a day ago, i'm so much happier with my note 9❤❤❤
Lmao u saying apple didnt sell you the music you listened to ten years ago?
He is saying iTunes used to be user-friendly, now to just a stupid music player with stupid extra feature to sell music to
But if you have the Money to update each time they switch connection standards, Apple is still pretty cool if you have all Apple devices for your home intertainment systems, but you better have a good yearly income (or a sucker of a bank manager)
Sadly this is how everything is, not just Apple. They don't care about your needs, just making money. If you want a good working program u have to get some freeware thing like foobar
The only Apple products that I ever buy are from the grocery store.

Jobs was the inventor of planned obsolescence for electronics. Mostly for their Iphones. I owned one once way back. So I updated the OS and now the phone worked like crap. Oh, you need to upgrade your phone. I said no, I need to dump the Iphone like it's on fire.
Patty Jeddy Indeed, Steve was the architect of planned obsolescence, but he wouldn’t stand for messy user interfaces or confusing or redundant menus in iTuned.
@@PattyJeddyfun I have a $200 Motorola Android phone. It works just as well as any Samsung or Iphone I've ever had...which is to say: it's not flawless, but it gets the job done. I will never spend $900+ on another phone. There's no reason to.
I'm not the smartest guy in the world, but I recognized a long ago that Apple phones were not for me since wouldn't be allowed to upload my music to an iPhone. I've been an Android and PC user ever since and don't regret it.

i have all my music on my iphone. lol
You can upload music that you own, just not use the apple system as a source to distribute copies. Similar restriction apply to Android/google/PC world - I have both, each has strengths and flaws. Use what works best for your needs.

You are blaming windows for your wifi problems yet you want someone to believe you worked for Microsoft in a Dev role? No. That won't happen Ableton does not run better on Mac. You were not even going the route someone would to be believable you brought up not responding. Your PC was crap or you are lying. The lie would have been better if you said performance was just slightly under but what you stated was your PC is garbage. Not to mention you brought up ram with no spec. Plus ram is one factor kid.

How I see it - Steve Jobs' Apple made products to please customers. The new Apple makes products to please shareholders.

At least now that "weird port" is becoming standard, and being multiple use.

I can charge any of my Apple stuff from the same charger, copy everything from one phone to another effortlessly. Meanwhile Microsoft’s would come with a puncture and every day you’d have to stop by the roadside to apply yet another patch, and you’d have to deflate and re-inflate the tube every time.

Apple used to be an innovating, original and a simplistic company. Now it’s become greedy af. No fast charger included for iPhones, no 3.5mm dongle, the repair cost for a broken rear glass of an iPhone X or XS is crazy.

Thunderbolt is backward compatible with both Firewire 400 and Firewire 800. You can easily charge the phone and listen to music over headphones. Rating songs in iTunes is so you can adjust the frequency of playback in randomly queued playlists (but is not necessary of you don't want to use it, and you most certainly CAN record FaceTime calls. Just launch QT, select New Screen Recording, select the area you want to record (the FaceTime window) then the disclosure triangle next to the record button to activate the internal microphone (or other audio input device). Click the record button and go.

It's hilarious to me that the stereotypical Apple fan sees nothing ironic about their brand loyalty, given Apple's penchant for legitimate human rights violations around the world.
I would never buy anything from this greedy company. Their products are horribly overpriced and no better than Samsung. They hide billions of their obscene profits offshore to avoid U.S. taxes, screw over people attempting to get things fixed and brag about being to advanced technically. Bullshit. Most Apple lovers I know have problems with their phones and computers. The worst thing is the fools who claim they buy Apple stuff because it's so good and reliable but every year when a new iPhone comes out they are lined up to pay $1000 for it. If you're gonna replace it in 12 months, why are you paying so damn much for that "reliable" phone? Hey idiots, if a phone can't last a year without breaking then you should get some sense and stop buying that brand. Americans love to show off their wealth and choices but now when I see someone with an iPhone, I just laugh at them for being such a brainwashed sucker.

I've been an Apple user since 1991. I rarely bought anything on iTunes. I never liked the way the licensing worked. One thing you can do is burn stuff to a CD and then reload it into iTunes and you won't have that problem.
@Russell White Yeah, I know it’s “outmoded” tech, but it’s not that old. Apple still had optical drives until 2012 and you can still get an external one. A lot of us Apple users keep our old machines because of old software we still use too. That is one reason they’re a pain, but at least the machines still run when they’re obsolete. And you can still buy a cd used for $2 or $3 and import it into iTunes rather than spend $10 on a download. You could always do that.
@Russell White The reason to still buy CDs is getting to be the same reason a lot of people buy records. CDs can’t be retconned into being politically correct. Physical copies of things aren’t going to be remotely censored.
It’s not service to the user, it’s service to their wallets

Agree 1000% about iTunes. It used to be a fantastic music organizational tool. I could load my entire CD collection in and then into my iPod make great playlists and burn them to CDs. It was simpleq. And they had running totals at the bottom so you knew how many total songs, albums and playlists. Now it's all about tapping on the pretty pictures. I've changed computers, transferred the songs in from the old hard drive and I can't get them to appear in the library.
I had similar problems. The solution was to copy your entire music sub folder into the directory of your new iTunes. Also, in the new iTunes preferences, make sure that new iTunes “points” to the correct folder.
iTunes can be inscrutable.
I prefer to get actual music files that I can organize manually
I have actual music files and play them on VLC player. Simple free download, and plays all audio and video file formats on my Mac
Winamp used to be so good....
But they did come out with a brand new technology called, ‘It’s now in purple!’
So I’m going to trash my previous $1000 Apple investment to get the color purple.
Gold comment 🤣
Yes, purple is the best colour, you are right!

Purple reigns !
Also 11,000 for an desktop computer that is dogshit. You could mine bitcoin for that money but instead you have a computer that is 5 times the price of a better performing windows based PC
I love the intro!! Yep. I've never gone with Apple because of their we-won't-be-compatible-with any-other-company's-hardware attitude. You can't even tether from an Apple phone to an Apple TV or computer! I hate Windows, but at least I can simply hook my Android up to any computer (other than an Apple device), and save my hotspot. When you live out in the country, you often have only your phone's internet to power your TV, etc. Rick, you're just making too much sense for most of today's younger listeners! That iTunes rant is perfect. What a bunch of nonsense! Love, rating, dislike, stars??? But this is all there on demand!! People request that crap for some obscure reason. And I used to love iTunes as well. Completely ruined! Great upload! It's reassuring to see an intelligent human being calling this out for what it has become... CRAP! Thank you once again (-:
RUclips needs a laugh button. This was great.
They got rid of the jack connector so there is only one connector and you are force to buy a stupid adaptor...
What are they gonna ruin next?
get rid of all connectors, using magnetic wireless charger so you are stuck with the airpods that cost $159.00??
Apple is getting worse every year.
Marco Campobello stfu fanboy.
Nah just kidding man. I completely agree, Apple loves to rip people off more and more each year, and it’s finally catching up to them with the iPhone XS and XS Max
Next they will remove all connectors to make your device super thin
@Clinton De Youngyeah but i would rather buy normal headphones with the same qualitiy for less than half of the price of the airpods
guess what, apple removed the headphones jack on the new 12.9 inch ipad
The adaptor is free
Couldn't agree more. I switched to Andriod after 12 years and couldn't be happier
OS?
Apple almost had me sold on iphone with the 5s up to 7. My company gave me one and I had a supposedly unbreakable Android. That broke 3 times. Meanwhile I dropped my caseless iphone out of a truck repeatedly and it survived. Then came the software updates. Then came the fragile bricks that couldn't withstand being looked at for prolonged periods. Then I got back into Linux and realized Mac is just a stupid distribution of linux
good. see ya!
Usually I hear it the other way around apple fanboys saying that apple is so great and beautiful and android devices suck. Well hurl a rotten apple at them!!!
@@josephcontreras8930 I hurl a broken Samsung at u 😂
I don't like Apple; never have, and never will. _It just works:_ except that it doesn't. It's also shrouded in mystery. I've never heard anything great about it. I just see that people keep buying it. The only thing I can glean as to why people buy it is that it's a really pretty machine. Not a good enough reason to buy a very expensive computer.
I always said apple died when Steve Jobs died. Their death is just slower. Then again, never underestimate their cult following.
Steve Jobs invented Apple's bullshit strategies. Nothing has changed.
Their cult following includes waiting, for 2 weeks in a line outside their store that wraps round the block twice, to buy their latest product. Brainwashed numpties.
It was still all about marketing and hype... and not much else, even then. In fact probably even more so under Jobs, who not only directed the marketing and hype but who was himself marketed and hyped. The fanboy cult elevating their saint to godhood, upon his death. Jobs introduced the overpriced, 'style over substance' approach. Unfortunately, a lot of gullible idiots fell for it.
The cult following, there all zombies. They wont care what apple put out.
Heaven's Gate website is up and running to this day. Don't ever underestimate people's stupidity.
You nailed it. Apple was best in 2007. It continuously went down hill from there. Ask yourself WHY you have purchased 10 cell phones in 10 years! I convinced our entire engineering department to switch from Linux to Macs for software development. 10 years later we are switching back to Linux because OSX is clearly being downgraded to a social media client not a machine for serious work.
For proprietary production software, OS X isn't bad at all. But the last time an Apple product was seriously worth it was the IIGS, and even then, that faced competition from the Commodore Amiga, but for the most part, the II series was the last time Apple was truly good.
The hardware was truly good, but even us Amiga users were dying for a Unix based operating system. When Steve brought Open Step into Apple, and it became Darwin, it was like a dream come true. I still love the core of the OS. I love the simplicity of application forks (.app bundle) vs crappy windows and linux installs... but the desktop efficiency is getting STOOPID
Should have stuck with Linux my friends. Its the best. Not the simplest but the best.
Don't you mean in 2011 it started to go down? What's really happening is that it's the hardware between the chair and the keyboard. When you go through that much hardware and all of it dies, it tends to NOT be the manufacturer at that point.
NintendoNoah, Mac OSX is the best OS on the market because it's both easy to use and secure since it is Unix. Windows integrated open source into it's already failed OS and continues to have vulnerabilities and serious issues keeping data together to this day. When you've used macs for 30+ years like I have and they've all been refurbs and you've used OS X since it's infancy and never had a virus never had any issues with anything really, that says something about the company.
The only issue I've ever had with any Apple product is the iPhone and that's due to planned obsolescence.
Oxygen = Just breathe for free and enjoy life
iOxygen = $900 per bottle and $300 for a refill, while waiting for the shipping of the refill, hold your breath or just suffocate
And don't forget that you need to buy the bottle cap separately
You would also need an apple charger to charge the bottle cap and the bottle to be able to hold the air which then you need to charge or else it will turn in to Co2
You have to buy a new one...
This one no longer works!
Reminds me of "Perri Air" from Spaceballs.
iOxygenPro - you will need an adapter to use it (only 99 EUR)
Makes me feel like a genius. I've ALWAYS known that Apple was CRAP.
Never bought any of their products and never will, seeing how they enslave their foolish customers. expensive crap with very short planned obsolescence
Nice job missing the point entirely. Apple has not always been crap. Not even close. Its true, they are in fact crap now. But for the years that Jobs was around…their stuff was actually worth the purchase price. Not anymore.
Your smarter than the rest of us
Steve Jobs never invented anything. He was however, a master salesman. He just put others ideas into easy to use products, by directing a talented team of engineers. Apple died when Steve did.
That is true, but at least he was making decent overpriced products. In the moment they are just overpriced garbage. The only thing left good in mac are the screens.
Harvester Of Tone The problem is, we shouldn't need to buy every iteration. A windows pc will be compatible even after 5-10 years.
Apple seriously had ruined consumer compatibility, & just started to focus on money & money.
I still don't know why people buy Apple. There are a million products better than that.
Switch to Google & windows.
Par D: are you seriously just copy pasting this comment. I just saw you in a previous comment😒
Don't forget how much of a QA guy he was too; that's the key part here. Nothing went to market that wasn't fanatically aligned to his vision, which did *seem* to work for their customers
Harvester Of Tone true.he was not a tech person....just a master manipulator
Finally getting rid of my iPhone 7, and getting that brand new note 9. Done with crapple
Wise choice.
Good choice bud
Can I have your iPhone 7?
Iphone 8
7 was and still is a good phone though
I have both iPhone 7 and note 9
How can someone like a company who makes their old phones slower to make you buy new ones
Chinês Gamer Okay, there are many things to criticise Apple for. But that's not one of those. Go look up why they did that.
Florian Kirchner Sure, lithium batteries get slower and all of that. But don't you think its very strange that they do that when they announce a new phone? Also, they don't even ask you permission, they secretly do that like they don't want you to know
Jesse Reale Samsungs are amazing.
People who keep their phones long enough for that to come into effect will care much more about random unexpected shutdowns than a bit of performance. It just doesn't make logical sense that they'd do it to encourage upgrades.
Boy, as soon as I get a chance to dump my iphone I'm getting a samsung or something else. Not going back to apple. Same goes for my macbook pro.
This was music to my ears. An apple fan that finally learned the truth. Apple is just a brand, its nothing.
got a macbook for school. everything is so frustrating
Some people say that the x is worth no more than 500 bucks . You guys forgot the cost of the logo.
Jk.
the reel reason the iphone x / 10 is so expensive because the screen is hard to make them rounded corners
@@masonsmithYT please tell me you are joking...
no oneplus also has a powerful phone called the oneplus 6
@@masonsmithYT as if Samsung's curved displays were easier to make. It's a marketing policy to brainwash people to believe that it's really worth the price tag.
Crazy how far they’ve fallen. I remember 15 years ago when people used to call them “overrated” but those were usually those not working in music or film - their hardware/software combinations were the best then. The criticism never stopped but now it’s come true. Their products are sub par, their servicing is predatory. They’re running on the fumes of a once great company.
Not really. Even 15 years ago you could get a similar PC set up for less price and depending on what you did you already could do it on the PC like Photospop, Premiere, Fireworks. PCs were always ahead in 3D Design like 3DS Max or Blender. And it just moved away from there all the time. Nostalgy and archaic systems at the receivers end are the only business reasons to remain on Apple nowadays
xcver Logic and Digidesign hardware/software was easier to work with on Mac back then than Windows. There were far fewer compatibility issues. Walk into almost any recording studio in 2005, and you’d likely find a Mac stuffed inside a closet running the show.
all because of steve jobs getting fired
The Apple hate never goes away in that big crowd of people.
Meanwhile Apple is doing great. Not fallen in any way.
And sane people don't care about specs. They care about usability and experience
@@morten1 You mean like intentionally degrading performance in old devices? Or creating proprietary *screws* so people can't perform maintenance on their own products, or take their own products to a third party repair store? That kind of usability and experience? Or maybe it's the experience where people can't buy Kindle books on iOS due to Apples anti-competitive app-store policies. Such a great "experience" that Apple is creating for their users today.
"Who rates their music?!" That killed me jajajajajaja
Chyea like listening to Rakim Y Ken Y singing 'jajejaje jajejaje'
"I hate this song, which is why I listen to it. I give it a 1 and will keep it in my playlist."
I rate my music. There is casual stuff. More elegant stuff and God tier stuff.
I rate my music as well, hell I have a whole system
literally every single person that is capable of feeling emotions rates music
I worked as a WFH Apple Advisor. Absolute worst workplace I have ever worked. Racism is rampant, biased toward people of colour. Passive aggressive behaviour, constant threats of being fired, but they will use kind words to explain that you could get fired, even for doing exactly as instructed. The people who get promoted got hired for all the wrong reasons (racism), they don't have the skills, experience, or abilities; and have no clue what they are doing. They can't agree on anything, and as a result people get fired when they get caught in the crossfire of supervisors arguing about what you can and cannot do. Extremely stressful workplace where discrimination and exclusion is the norm. Avoid at all cost, for your own sanity.
apple does not care about it's customers. Nothing but a greedy corrupt company.
nowadays you have more chances to get promoted if you are man/woman of colour regardless of your skills and talents 😂
@@rivciks5045 So true, don't you say it out loud, lol.
Finally...you have seen the light, welcome to the other side & enjoy the world of USB, SDcards, HDMI & AUX. 😉🤗
Yeah, baby...the DARK side....where, ironically, 95% of the world has been living in spite (or in many cases BECAUSE) of Mac!
A lot of us non-Apple users are more than content with our non-Apple devices. That makes us the light side.
I know how they went from the greatest computer company to a producer of junk. Steve Jobs died.
:(
They were never the greatest computer company.
Steve jobs was stealing ideas in the first place tho
Aiden No kidding, but he was executing those ideas.
More like Steve Jobs died and had a bunch of useless retards under him. A fucking chimpanzee could probably make the same decisions being made by these guys.
When Jobs died, so did their creativity.
True
...so did HIS* creativity
Steve Jobs Compared the iPhone 4 design to a Leica camera. iPhone 4 and 5 were awesome. All the iPhones after the 4 and 5 look boring and bland. @Adam and Eve
Not creativity, they lost their dignity. Scumbag Tim CROOKED is all about profits and appeasing the stock market. Hence, poor quality in their products ever since.
Exactly my thoughts. Many of the great companies over the years were started and led by great visionaries like Jobs. Then the visionary leaves, the accountants, business-people and bean-counters replace them. People who focus solely on profit margins. The Mac was Apple’s cream, they constantly kept it updated. It was Steve’s baby. Now the Mac goes years without a refresh, but the IPhone, IPad and watches get refreshed every few weeks! Why? Because they sell in high volume, easier to sell, Tim sees more profit in them.
