R.I.P iTunes Home Sharing

so that sucks.

What the hell? Are you telling me instead of fixing that buggy mess (lately I never got it to work on iOS anymore) they finally just removed it?! The Apple Music story just gets 'better' and better.

Amazing!

Home Sharing still is listed for videos though.

 

[skadd]

Why? Will it come back?

This is ******** Apple. That's the one feature that I hoped they would finally fix as I use it all the time. Nope, just remove it. Getting closer and closer to abandoning iTunes.

I assume you are talking about the iOS app. Home Sharing still works just fine on iTunes on the mac.

Yes. The iOS app. Used to work great a few years ago. Then started having trouble loading my large library. Still worked like charm on my 1st gen iPad with ios5. It was a very convenient feature when working.

Most likely they want us to use the music in the cloud feature so there is no need to connect to other computers.

Then I will find a third party app to get it done I guess. I don't want my music in the Apple cloud unless it can be in Apple lossless. I may be in the minority but the more Apple steers users towards the cloud and takes away useable features, the more likely I will use something else.
