The U1 album doesn't have that option, we've all tried that and it's
unavailable; there's something you have to do in Itunes, think you have to do
it via the app store, but can't remember if you have to do it via your phone,
or the computer, sense it doesn't show up in your itunes library.

Ok, I couldn't have said that better myself, and there's a way to get rid of
that album, but can't remember how right off; you may have to google it, sense
I deleted the e-mail someone on another list sent me sense I was done with it.
I love Apple's products, and wouldn't go back to what I used to use (a windows
smartphone running mobile speak, that was still only halfway accessible,) for
anything in the world, but think that just like Microsoft was famous for doing,
they're starting to release their updates way too soon, and, so am really glad
there's someone in agreement here.

Hi all,
I don't know about yall, but I have an iphone 6 with IOS 8 and I have to say that the
experience is less than stellar. Bugs everywhere, slower than on my iphone 5s, siri cut
off midway then voice over not working, hang like slowness when getting out of an app. I
have to say that I have started looking for alternatives as I feel like apple is trying
to nudge things too much into the "let big brother figure out for you what you
should like and do". Point in case, that U2 debacle. Last weekend I was camping with
some mates and I was going through some tracks after lunch, and those damn U2 tracks kept
popping up like annoying ads. Really don't want some band pushing their crap on my life
experience when I shelled out 1200 dollars for a phone that is supposed to do things for
me. Not the other way around. Sure, U2 has some great songs. But their current 50's
midlife crisis moans aren't my style, nor inspire me. I can listen to that when I go into
an apple store and wait for a genius
to tell me my future.
Seriously folks, I'm not just going off on a rant, and for those of you who
want to reply by being defensive for apple, just remember a few basic things:
1-You are customer. Customer is king, you are not serving apple. Apple makes
money off you, take 30 percent of the cut on your music production or app
developement with their platform. They serve you. Not the other way around.
2-Apple is not god almighty. Apple has great people that collectively create
experiences. At the helm, a few individuals decide on the direction of that
experience. Personally, I don't trust Tim Cook that much in giving us a good
experience. That Johnny Ive sounds like a pompous marketing guy with design
skills I cannot trust as head of human interface, a software division, coming
from someone who used to make toilet seats. The only one or ones I can trust in
this are frederici and some of the younger engineers presented at the last
apple showcase. but they don't have enough say yet, so we're stuck with all
that flash graphical transition animation style crap instead of truly clean,
efficient and snappy interfaces.
3-There are other choices out there, but I have no idea what. Sometimes I wish I was sighted again so that I can really be part of the process of creating real interfaces for everyone. It's frustrating to know that most companies follow what is standard and forget that standards are meant to be broken and updated. Not broken at the cost of the buyer, no. If it's broken, it should be free, such as what google offers. Buying a 3000 dollar piece of hardware to get clunky experiences and moments where you want to throw that damn thing out the window and never touch it again is clearly not what I call good experience on a computer. More and more of my friends, mac users, both sighted and visually impaired, agree with me that apple is starting to rot in terms of presenting it's image. It's not an underdog but a huge bulky oil tanker that can now only manuver slowly with a battalion of lawyers behind murmuring at the chief's ears, the latter being probably more complacent than should
be, thus giving us this weird awkward show each year now with a barely straight
talking TIm Cook who sounds like he never had a girl friend chill time or
something seems amiss in him. Some soul? Something. Whatever the case, I don't
really dig the style apple is portraying. It's becoming a disney world
presentation with oooohs and aaahs when the tech behind is quite literally
lagging. No visionary stuff, when this qualification should by now, from all
the sci fi, the research and the graduations of bright people, should lead us
much farther in terms of actual interaction with a computer, and let's not
forget screen readers.
Anyway, off for my morning coffee. Have a great day yall
