What Amber explained was exactly what I’d feared: through the Apple Music subscription, which I had, Apple now deletes files from its users’ computers. When I signed up for Apple Music, iTunes evaluated my massive collection of Mp3s and WAV files, scanned Apple’s database for what it considered matches, then removed the original files from my internal hard drive. REMOVED them. Deleted. If Apple Music saw a file it didn’t recognize—which came up often, since I’m a freelance composer and have many music files that I created myself—it would then download it to Apple’s database, delete it from my hard drive, and serve it back to me when I wanted to listen, just like it would with my other music files it had deleted. https://blog.vellumatlanta.com/2016/05/04/apple-stole-my-music-no-seriously/ |

It is not a problem, why not use Pandora? Look up any artist and boom you get it from any type of genre, any place in the world, any language at the snap of your fingers. P.S. my stereo system is old school, I have a reel to reel 4 channel track machine, a cassette recorder/player, a turntable, a cd/recorder/player, amp, preamp and an awesome receiver. Plus a collection of over 3000 vinyl LP albums. Edited by edro14, May 10 2016, 09:51 AM.
