Comments on: 'BadApple' podcasts first in iTunes

Anonymous software plug-in has signs of corporate sponsorship, but still thumbs nose at Apple.

MP3Tunes taking on iTunes?!? Give me a break!

This sounds as absurd as Apple taking on Microsoft. Oh, wait...are
they?! Daunting challenges aside, I surfed on over to
mp3tunes.com to check it out. I did a quick search for my favorite
band: Rush. I got 7 results, including Casey Rush, Karen Rush, and
Junkie Rush...but no Rush! If that's any indication of the
thoroughness of their attack on iTunes, well, they're in for a rude
awakening. You get one chance to make a good impression, and
mine wasn't.

Is This Really About Music?

Or is it more about an effort on the part of a (once great, now fallen) computer music/content- playing firm to regain their rightful place in the scheme of things? If so, do we have pity on them...do we grieve with them...for them? Me? Oh course, I do. That, you can be sure. But heck, I'm loyal to my old C64, INFOCOM games and Compuserve email address...all of us who communicated by email over two decades
ago... .

Problem with badapple

I just downloaded badapple to my PC and after running the program I tried to connect to Apple's music store and my connection was refused. I removed badapple from my computer and reloaded my itune software but I still cannot connect to the apple music store. I have never had problems connecting to the store so I assume the badapple software caused this problem. Does anyone have a fix?

What file?

What was the file you deleted? I am having the same problem w/ my Apple music store.

Fix for badapple problem

When I installed badapple on my PC it prevented Itunes from accessing the Apple music store even after I remove badapple the problem persisted. A "host" file had been placed in my windows directory that prevented my connection to Apple music store. I had to delete the file, now Itunes works properly again. Since badapple is being distributed by an Apple online music competitor it makes one wonder . . hummmmmm!

People actually trusted a company with "bad" in its name?

And now a lot of them have messed up their iTunes.

Go figure.

iTunes is messed up to begin with.
