They certainly have failures, that's one of them. But nobody was sad when it got killed, you know? Nobody misses iTunes Ping or iAds or MobileMe.

- sangnoir 11y ago> But nobody was sad when it got killed, you know Oh my, isn't that damning with faint praise? It's an indictment against Apple: Ping was so bad no one missed it.
- oldmanjay 11y agoWell, it's an indictment against Ping anyway. It would be mighty disingenuous to somehow suggest that level of failure is a statement of the possibility of future success for them considering how big their hits are.
- sangnoir 11y agoIt's only disingenuous if you're stripping away the context of the thread, further upstream, ancestor comment said: >>>On the other hand, that product stance helps [Apple] avoid Google Reader-type situations. and GP replied: >>Right, it gets them into more iTunes Ping situations. followed by: >But nobody was sad when it got killed, you know? Nobody misses iTunes Ping or iAds or MobileMe Which is damning Apple with faint praise. >It would be mighty disingenuous to somehow suggest that level of failure is a statement of the possibility of future success for them considering how big their hits are That's a non-sequitur. No where in my comment did I extrapolate or attept to divine Apple's future failure/success.
