i can see it now...
hear song you like
hold button down...
enjoyable music stops
wait for Siri...
continue to wait while she gets her shit together
ask Siri to rate the song
Siri misunderstands what you said and attempts to go to the internet to find results for your search
Siri crashes
you now need to hit play again in the music app to get the song to continue playing
you crash while doing that
song gets no stars
you get 500,000 stars as the airbag hits you in the fucking face

You still have to hold the button down to get Siri?
And even if it's still not working offline, if it still does basic things like skipping tracks then rating should fit into that. I guess they have some catching up to do. Ok Googke works great even with city noise.

Well honestly I really don’t use Siri for anything, and yeah I paid for it, but I didn’t ask for it. And with H2’s scenario arguing with or correcting an AI while driving could cause more distraction than just quickly glancing at the stereo screen and tapping a star.

that ^ it's great when it works but once it goes south the cool factor is a lot like a turd on the sidewalk in the morning cold and shitty.

Actually, did I really pay a premium for Siri? Both Android and Windows have AI. So it’s not like I paid Apple for a feature the competitors don’t have. Its standard issue for all at this point.

What’s going to be dope in theory is I think my car is within wifi range at my work. So if I setup the iPod Touch to auto install tracks I buy if I buy anything while I’m at work it should be all ready for me to jam in my car when I leave without having to do a damn thing.

If you got a job interview at Apple how much would wearing an Apple Watch to the interview affect your chances? It’s like all the money you saved by not buying an unnecessary suit would be spent on a damn watch.

Alright, I get the issue with staying past your shift to have your bags checked, but calling them “embarrassing and demeaning”? Exactly how many days do you have to work at Apple before you realize you shouldn’t be putting embarrassing shit in your bag? I guess the answer is you never learn. Millennial world problems. “Genius” bar, my ass.

I think embarrassing and demeaning isn't inappropriate. Someone going through your shit at the end of every work day? Maybe if you're going into a prison or sadly, an airport. A computer store? Trust is key to a healthy relationship
