Guess you forgot, so I'll remind you. It was Steve Jobs who dropped 'computers' from Apple's name. Reason he gave??? '... because we are more than computers....'
Apple Music is doing just fine, a lot of people listen to Beats 1 and your strategy would lead to lawsuits. It's probably a good that Apple doesn't share your mindset. Anyway, I can't see a downside to having a visible recording booth. I walk by one every day on my way to work. It's pretty cool, and good publicity.
For the Mac Pro people: please keep your thoughts in an appropriate thread. If you're not posting about the article, why are you posting?
Two yearswere not talking about going to Mars, and lets face it the 2016 MBP is far from free of flaws, just exactly how much time does Apple need to get things right? As stated Apple needs to deliver bottom line...
Q-6
Who said two years anyways? All we've heard from was a blogger with "sources" which may or may not be reliable.
"broadcast around the clock" not "broadcasted around the clock".
Thank you.
Thank you.
And Google once was just a search engine!
Like all companies were making only one thing or 2 long time ago.
Time have changed since then, things have changed since then, not old school anymore. Deal with it.
To support your argument; according to Apple, their Mac business would be a Fortune 100 company.
To be frank I am really tired of login in this forum and reading all time bunch of Mac crybabies who think Apple should only make Macs, and most of the times in articles totally unrelated to Mac. Mac is not anymore the main focus of Apple, the sooner you realize it, the better it is for you and all of us who love other stuff also.
Not sure if that was aimed at me or not? If so, think you missed the point of my post haha
Sell off all CPU to a dedicated company
Then go make fuss with Ebro Garden, Iovine, Dré and other Dick's Different

Apple's core business used to be computers. Now they can't even get a notebook right..... it's all hip and cool crap centred around Music and fashion.....some of us still think of apple as a computer company, hence the cynicism levels are rising.... especially given we might not see a new Mac Pro for another few years...

How true eh, TC just talks crap, he has become a politician through and through. For him great products are watch bands , dongles etc....Cause he only cares about profit margins.
Yeah - because its not like its two completely different things.
They actually have Mac engineers doing the building work in the Apple store.
What a complete waste of their engineering expertise.
Do you really believe Apple would be better off forgetting about their services business?
Let go of the App Store and the iTunes Store? Drop Apple Pay? Forget about trying to establish a healthy market share in these profit generating sidelines so they can focus on the Mac Pro for the 0.001% of their customers who need it?
Or might it just be possible that they can do both?
Can they? Cause they are sure sucking at computers lately. And even the phone is very "meh".
If true it will draw some more people to their store no matter if people know about Beats 1 or not.
I try visiting Apple Stores when I travel because there is none where I live. It's not that I need to visit or must buy something but girls go to Victoria's Secret when they visit London or New York because its not available here.
If there is a radio booth there it could be artists there for interviews, radio game shows, interviews with people from the street when they have a new product release and so on. It all adds up to brand recognition and exposure. It's not like average Joe finds out about Beats 1 when he sees the radio booth and feels the urge to sign up for Apple Music.

Are you referring to the entire music output of Beats 1 as 'nonsense'?
And keeping a straight face while you say it?
So when did Apple first realise they needed a new MacPro? Last week?
This idea that the two things are somehow connected is kinda nonsense.

"Ma'am, this is a radio station."
"What, I thought this was an Apple Store?"
"The Apple Store is over there. we make hits and drop beats over here"
