Well, the audience is certainly bigger than voiceover users. Not that they shouldn’t do stuff for voiceover users, but they’re a huge company. And there’s just no reason for them not to have a better search mechanism. If a little dinky companies like tidal and prime phonic can do it, Apple reall

Yes, Apple is a rich company. It is also a big company, with more than one billion iPhones in active use. It is likely that classical music is too small an audience to devote a lot of resources. Classical lovers are better off ripping CD’s and transferring them to their device or finding classical

I have no idea. All I know is that Apple is a very rich company. They’re really getting into services. And maybe classical just isn’t big enough for them to mess with, but so far prime phonic is still in business. Maybe what they need to do is buy prime phonic, but not screw it up like they did

I wonder if they use a different database than perhaps other services. Or, the CD itself had Bach as the Artist. I know I ran across that a lot with CD’s that I ripped into iTunes. I spent too much time editing the tagging so the Artist was actually the artist and not the composer, etc. Pretty st
