Nah, iTunes was a giant POC way before Jobs left us. It hasn’t been usable since the early iPod days!!!

Thank you! I thought it was just me or that I was getting old. iTunes / Apple makes everything difficult. God forbid you don’t use iTunes for a few weeks. Then it’s time for a google search/ tutorial for the simplest task yet again.

It's gotten worse. Every update seems to make it slower and less friendly toward searching for older material.

Like Disney theme parks.

Yes!! It was terrible before Jobs. I haven’t downloaded iTunes since the iPod when I actually needed it. Now, restoring or backing up my iPhone can be done through iCloud which is way easier than that clunky garbage.

I switched to Spotify last year for this very reason and I haven't looked back. One of the features I love about Spotify is the ability to play the music iTunes has stored on your local hard drive.

Spotify is great. I jumped on the band wagon in 2014 and I haven't listened to iTunes ever since. Occasionally I listen on Youtube though.

Only problem I have with Spotify is I signed up for a free month of premium and now there's no option for me to cancel it

I can no longer access Spotify because I pirated it.

After watching Justin Scarred's vlog from Star Wars Nite (I had no interest in watching it until now), it made me realize how the budget for the Star Wars Nite's was probably bigger than the budget for Pixar Fest.

Dunno, guess Lucas brings in more money than Pixar, so budgets are bigger?

But IP rides or areas attract more people and generate more buzz. Some people are planning to travel around the globe next year for Galaxy's Edge. Who would make an international trip to ride Mystic Manor?

Funny I just did last week (along with IM and GG). Amazing ride though! HKDL is definitely improving.

I am looking in doing the same next year!

Without Jobs, iTunes has certainly changed from joy-to-use into clunky, user-unfriendly pain-in-the-keister.

No ITunes was really bad when he was around too. I stopped using it completely by 2010. Its one of the reasons I can never imagine buying an Iphone.

Definitely go! HKDL is still not perfect but its becoming a nice leisure park and I can honestly say I like most things there now. And the new Ant-Man ride should be open by then. And you have the amazing city of Hong Kong to enjoy as well!

I think they know anything they do with Star Wars has to be done right since it has such a large fan base and is an iconic part of American culture vs. Pixar which is much newer and anything they do the public will eat it up.

You can keep your Spotty-tunes. I still buy CDs.

The character lattice work is actually very nice, and I love what they've done with the buildings beside it...

Well if you wanna get suuuper technical about it, they are kinda one in the same as Pixar was initially a computer graphics division of Lucasfilm in 1979. (Though not technically called Pixar until 1986!)
