Re: Some questions about iOS
Hay, at the start it was! about ios, remember that "offtopic posting" just means not posting completely unrelated questions, discussions can change after all and so long as one post follows logically in content from another post it's okay, even if the topic winds up being about something %100 different. I've actually een on forums where people are quick to push the "That is offtopic!" button and treat topic subjects like streight jackets, but that definitely goes in with what tends to be nazi moderation.
As to genres well I just don't find them helpful. As the tenor Alphie bowe said, "there are two sorts of music, good music and bad music" and I agree with him rather a lot, which is why my music collection goes from progressive rock to disney, to weerd experimental, and a few bits of pop albeit less of the last sinse far too much pop tends to be very manufactured and more about images and formula than actual musical c ontent or emotion,.
It always amuses me how many people I meet who are like The waitress in the blues brothers film who says "well we're very liberal here, we have both kinds of music country and! western" .
This is also why "genre" annoys me sinse it goes with the hole demographic thinking so often practiced by marketing executives, "Well this is such and such a genre and will appeal to teenagers, or singles, or old fogies" or whatever.
Then again I will admit musically I'm quite a snob, but that is another discussion. BAsically I tend to find what I like not by genres but usually by recommendations instead, which is why my collection is so eclectic.
And of course, the genres distinction breaks down utterly with books and audio dramas, I do always laugh wen I see "J K Rowling" listed as "the a rtist" and "harry potter" as the album, it's just so pathetically formulaeic.
