iTunes complaint
March 11th, 2008 by ClaudeTagged as: iTunes.
Do you use iTunes?  Maybe you have the same issue I do…For the past year +, in my shopping cart on iTunes, I have had 3 of the same albums recommended to me.  Now, maybe The Arctic Monkeys, The Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Beck’s Guero albums are AWESOME…but I AIN’T BUYIN’ EM’!  Recommend something else.  Go back to the programming and set up some kind of timer that eliminates recommendations that haven’t been purchased within, oh, I don’t know…a YEAR?!?  PS.  Check out the new album from System of a Down singer Serj Tankian, Elect the Dead.Â

I TOTALLY agree with you. I also have a complaint with Amazon.com. Every few weeks they’ll send me an e-mail that says, “you bought this… so we thought you’d like this ___.” Well, usually it’s, “you bought this camera lens (a year ago) so we thought you might be interested in this camera lens cover (the one that came with the lens).” WTF?

I can’t believe Apple never bought Pandora and integrated it into iTunes. I’ve never seen a better recommendation engine than Pandora.
