Which downside? What do you mean? Everything I've added to it locally is in its own folder, and it's a copy of the original files.

I'm really liking Apple Music. Mainly because it's streaming bolted on to a real music library manager, so you can do stuff like edit song metadata, 5-star song ratings (though they really want you to use the stupid favorite system that Spotify also has), playlists that let you filter your library based on rules, and even add/upload your own tracks, so anything that's missing you can add yourself.
Though I'm not sure how the experience is if you don't have a Mac, as the web client is hot garbage and they don't have a native Linux client.
I’ve used SongShift before to transfer playlists between music services. Looks like it can also export them to a file.
I think I once read they sell it (including the real time traffic data) for use in car infotainment systems and other specialized hardware that needs GPS navigation.
Ah, for realtime traffic, check out Magic Earth.
In which way is it not viable yet? I guess it depends a lot on what app you use but I’ve been happy with OsmAnd and Organic Maps.
Oh that's cool, I didn't know we had voluntary EMT. (You're in Germany judging by your user name?)
How does that work anyway, if you also have a full time job alongside?
diagnosed with ICD-10 F60.2. I considered being in those services fun
Hah, I once talked to someone who was as well, and was also an EMT. I guess it makes sense :^)
Oh god. I thought at least Apple had some standard of quality left for the software they're releasing. Though considering this isn't for their own platform, and their track record for their other Windows software (at least iTunes) maybe I shouldn't be too surprised.
This is about the programs, not the services. Apple Music on Mac can also buy music from iTunes despite not being called iTunes anymore.
He absolutely does and could. That’s why I picked him.
If I had to pick between two con-men, I’d rather have fucking Elon have that money. At least he isn’t making the biggest energy black hole.
Ahh, I see. Yeah that absolutely shouldn't happen, at least not by default… Though I believe I've added an album that's already in Apple Music once and it also kept the local files. Maybe in those cases it deleted the local files as the disk was getting full to clear up space, or something? Definitely inexcusable though :V
