Decky Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 How brilliant is this feature? I started using it last night and im buying songs like theres no tomorrow here. Mainly songs i heard and didnt know the name of and songs from many moons ago. I highly recommend this to anyone who uses iTunes, use Genius! Only thing that annoys me is Genius has been out for months and i chose to ignore it, all the songs I could have had by now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than that, Genius is a, wait for it, Genius feature. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decky Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 I do download alot of albums illegally mate, but thats simply because I cant afford to pay for them and i dont care about the moral issues. If i could afford to buy every song I own I would as im a perfectionist with my iPod, there can be NO faults on it. Ive seen my friends' iPods and theres like 40 different versions of each artist only spelt differently, it disturbs me seeing such things. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decky Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Also, for what it is worth, iTunes has to be the perfect piece of software for music, the ability to jump between songs in the store using features like Genius and features built into the software from day 1 is outstanding. No software competes, I know people who dont use it too for their iPods, they use shit like Real Player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only buy music I like from artists that aren't on a major label, as I'm well aware of the fact that very little actually makes it to the artists.

SEMTEX Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Genius can fuck off, i'll decide what i like and what i dont. ... retard. Anyways... How brilliant is this feature? I started using it last night and im buying songs like theres no tomorrow here. Mainly songs i heard and didnt know the name of and songs from many moons ago. I highly recommend this to anyone who uses iTunes, use Genius! Only thing that annoys me is Genius has been out for months and i chose to ignore it, all the songs I could have had by now I find Genius is quite good on my computer where I've got all my music, but as I only keep about 9gb of music on my phone, its not so amazing there.

SEMTEX Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 last.fm has been around for years (previously as audioscrobbler) aye, use that too. But more for finding out new songs that I don't already know of. Rather than creating a nice mix of songs I do have (Genius). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only time I've had a problem with getting cover art in iTunes is that one time, otherwise I always get them automatically.

WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 just logged into my account to set this away, could be good. The past few nights when I've been bored I've been tidying my iTunes, as I've got loads of stuff twice over etc, eg. The Who's 'Then & Now' and 'The Essential Who' - put them on without thinking ages ago, but pretty much the same songs, no point on having them on twice. Got Elbow's new album going as I type, hopefully it'll recommend more good songs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Nice idea, but some of it is a bit predictable eg. Give it an Oasis song, and it'll throw up Stone Roses, Primal Scream, Kasabian etc. Gave it the Jam and it started recommending Paul Weller Having said that I gave it Modest Mouse and it's brought up a quality playlist.

ChezGiven Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Works nicely for on-the-go playlists on the iPod too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
