And I hardly have any music on it.
It's because I'm lazy about deleting apps.
And app sizes are massively ballooning without any real noticeable improvement to justify the drive suck.
I'm sure the next iPad will have a 256 GB* option for just 100 $ more than the current 128 GB model.
* Actual available disk space may vary.*
*It will be much less LOL.

Famous or "important" people in unedited and unstaged photos that make them look like just some random people.

Probly out getting some snatch. And Blondie there is always thinking of him, probly wondering if he's with her daughter and if she would really mind or even be proud of her.

This is getting ridiculous:
https://itunes.apple.com/de/app/modstep ... 90643?mt=8
Okay, so this is 'like' Ableton Live's midi options, except it is entirely an app.
It is made by the makers of Touchable.
It has IAA hosting, so all the apps can pipe their audio through this one app.
It also has a built in synth and sampler.
I bet I'm missing some details, but holy shit

Well, shit. AT&T will no longer be offering subsidized iPhones meaning you either have to buy the phone up front (that’s $850 for my standard 128GB model), or have monthly payments baked into your cell bill. I don’t like that. I like paying my usual $400 up front and don’t want another $30 a month tacked on to my cell bill. But I guess this new practice is becoming the industry standard.
I can buy a Mac Mini for less than $850 and it would last me longer than an iPhone. FFS.

Garage Band update for iOS includes a clip-view loop-player.
Would call it a "Live" like fuction, but still interesting how Apple develops Garage Band.

The For You section of Apple Music is officially SHIT. No matter how much different music I listen to or songs I Like including songs I’ve purchased which should be an auto “no shit”, it’s been perpetually stuck thinking I only listen to current Main Room House, female fronted radio Pop, and Grunge. I don’t think it’s changed its suggested playlists for about a month now.
Clearly none of their human curators are over the age of 30.
A Plus on the Radio side is the Best of the Week which isn’t genre specific and the A-List stations that are genre specific if you want to know what is popular now. I’m not above current popular music.

I on an iPad Air 1 and the 3 sounds like it is going to be worth upgrading to, but if they announce it in March I may not instantly jump on it because of lack of funds for the first time ever. I would still have more money left in savings than the average American but that is setting the bar dangerously low.

If anyone wants to try a fun music concept app, FingerFiddle has been pretty neat to me!
One hand acts as the bow in a blank xy area, (or you can pluck of you do it towards the strings), the other hand is used to hold strings.
Not sure what they use to generate the sound, but it is really nice sounding. Very gestural also. I wish my iPad screen was more slippery hahahaha
I hope to see more instruments (midi controllers???) like this in the near future. Hardware or software (or hybrids)

I’ve been stressed with work and my health this morning. I totally forgot there is an Apple keynote today.
I’ll weigh in later.
