“Physical media is obsolete! The future is all digital!”
This has me worried about the future of customers and their products.
Okay so I’ve mentioned before that I work for Apple tech support. Let me mention a couple fun things.
1. iOS has no way to fully clean its cache aside from factory reset
2. Devices often encounter system wide glitches because the design simply does not allow the customer to do any meaningful changes or fixes. These cases also require a factory reset
3. More people forget their passcodes than you think, especially with the elderly, children, or people with a tablet they don’t use much. A factory reset is the only way to bypass this and prevent your device from being a brick
4. Currently the only way to do a full factory reset is with iTunes on Mac or PC
So either iTunes will still kinda exist, or customers will be forced to go to an Authorized Service Provider or Apple Store to do a basic reset on the phone, which is common and widely used for a multitude of issues.
Dear God I hope it’s not the latter.
FUCK APPLE NOW AND FOREVER
I knew it was evil the moment iTunes locked me out of my own downloaded music. Music I owned on A CD. Fuck apple and their corporate greed.
