Apple Beefing Up iAd Team Ahead of iTunes Radio Launch

They would, but he can't do it. While presenting to Cook, Cook stopped rocking in his chair entirely and the presenter fell down grabbing his throat. Something about "You have failed me for the last time" or something....

Why? Spotify's biggest client base comes from the free version which has, you guessed it, ads.

The yearly cost for iRadio is much cheaper than the yearly cost of Spotify. Many people will end up getting iTunes match to avoid ads because of the low iTunes match cost.
 
Shouldn't they bring in an outside professional agency to handle this? The in-house corporate teams are usually pretty terrible.

That's true, I just meant that Spotify having a free version with ads hasn't hurt them so I don't see why it would hurt iRadio.

True, the cost for the "premium" version definitely favours iRadio (or any other streaming service) with the exception of Last.fm. Personally I use Last.fm (I'm a subscriber) but I'll also use iRadio, as I already have iTunes Match anyway.
 
"I believe it will become a new fashion icon around the world," said Samsung CEO JK Shin.

LOL... yup. Nothing says fashionable like a big blocky hunk of rubber on your wrist with a dead battery. Well, nothing except maybe a non-emasculating, aqua-colored Google Glass.

JK and Sergey should get together and do a full line of fashion accessories 😀
 
I'm really looking forward to iTunes Radio. I hope they have a lot of good ambient / drone stations because SomaFM's Drone Zone is starting to play too many non-drone pieces - even ones with beats! 🙁
 
I've had iTunes Match for about a year and a half.
I love it. No need to buy a bigger iPhone for more memory and ALL MY MUSIC (102GB's) are with me at all times.

$25/year saves me from spending $200 extra to get the biggest iPhone every year.
Plus my iPad has all my music and also all 3 of my Apple TV' 🙂
