That social network for music lovers that Apple launched in 2010 and then retired in 2011 is back?
- vaylian 3y agoI'm still baffled that anyone thought that this was a viable idea. A social network based on your taste of music? Too bad your friends aren't into techno.
- sspiff 3y agoIt wasn't too far fetched. A lot of generations defined their social circles by tastes in music. In my youth at least it was very common. I think that it just doesn't scale beyond angsty teenagers.
- jdougan 3y agoThere are fans of "niche" genres that could find value in this. In the late 80s an acquaintance dropped almost all of her friends, based on their tastes in and dedication to music. I could see her using something like that to help generate a new friend group.
