ITunes Radio ~ why buy another album ever and why pay for iTunes match

With the new Radio that is coming to us in the UK sometime, can someone tell me why i would ever again subscribe to Spotify etc or why I would ever buy another album in a shop or over iTunes, or why I would ever pay for iMatch at 25 quid a year for uploading my songs i already own...?? As i understand it, all i will have to put up with is a few ads, which I an easily live with if I am not buying say 10 albums per year any more and am able to listen to whatever i like when I like...?
It is either all too good to be true or I have misunderstood some part of the sales pitches.
It seems to me that I will never buy another album

First of all, are you going to have wifi or 4g whenever you wish to listen to music for the rest of your life? If no, then that's one reason you might want to buy music.
Secondly, Like above poster said, iTunes radio doesn't give you much freedom in picking what you want to listen to.
Thirdly, even if they eventually do let you do that, a la spotify, rdio, it'll probably cost you a lot more than what you're paying for iTunes match right now.
Finally, even spotify and rdio have their limitations in what and how you can listen to your music.

    Why is it every time I try to buy itunes I am diverted to the Chinese store and cannot pay for my items? Can anyone help? I have tries to select the English store but it will not allow me to proceed. I think it has been hacked in the past as there is a list of Chinese Apps which it seems to be awaiting payment for, going back to 2011.

  • Can you buy Creative Cloud for a single month? Or do you have to buy the membership which lasts a year? If so can you cancel the membership after a month and only pay for that month.

  • Why pay for pdf Export if I am a member of Adobe Applications?

    Why pay for pdf Export if I am a member of Adobe Applications? This membership was supposed to include each and every Adobe Applications?

    Absolutely no reason. Because Adobe Acrobat includes this function already. It's just a service for people without Acrobat.

  • Wrong phone listed as returned and still paying for returned phone, how did I finally get a credit?

    I went to the Rancho Santa Margarita store back in February. On the 16th I switched to the Edge program and added my boyfriend. We bought 2 phones under the Edge, however, we needed to return his phone the next day due to no service at his work.
    The sales representative was great and returned the phone, however, on the receipt he listed my phone as being returned. I have been back to the store twice to get it fixed, called them multiple times as well and still no credit for the phone I no longer have in my possession.
    I finally did a live chat with a representative online with Verizon and he said he would look into and take care of it. But recently, I received an email from him saying that there is no record that the phone was returned so I would need to go back to the store that apparently won't or can't help me either.
    It is obvious that the wrong phone was listed on the return receipt since I am using the returned phone listed on my receipt and still paying for it as well. The other phone I am paying for is not even connected to a phone number. So it should be common sense and obvious that the wrong phone was listed as being returned because how could it be if I am using still using the phone that was apparently returned and it is connected to my phone line.
    I have spent hours trying to get this resolved and have now paid $275.12 on a phone that is in Verizon's possession but they won't and/or don't care to acknowledge the mistake on their part of listing the wrong phone returned.
    How can I finally get this resolved and get my money back? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. I have never had bad customer service until now and would hate to cancel my account, but am very close to that point.

    Ok so I am still perplexed by this situation and why Verizon chooses to ignore my pleas to help me get a refund for a phone that I no longer possess since I returned it to them the next day. I am still having to pay for this phone and am getting extremely upset at this situation.
    To make matters worse since I posted about this situation at the end of January, I did have one person contact me from Verizon and ask me for more information. I provided that information and have not heard back as well as now all receipts related to this incident have been removed from my account. Well I did keep a copy of these on my computer and on several zip drives so I still have the proof of them continuing to charge me for two phones when it shows a receipt of one being returned even though they listed the wrong one.
    I sure hope this was a mistake and not a cover up to try and eliminate all evidence of this mistake.
    Should I go to the better business bureau with this issue? Has anyone else had a similar situation and if so how did you finally get it resolved.
    Thank you in advance for your information and suggestions.

  • Why don't you have any other size monitor than the 27"? You are forcing me to buy another product line and I like Apple?

    I'd like to know why Apple no longer offers any other size display besides the 27"?  I can't use that size, nor do I have that kind of money. You are forcing me to buy another brand and the other brands don't have the compatibility to the new MacBook I just purchased. I would never have bought the new MacBook last month had I known about the display discrimination!  This ***** !

    Well, there are a lot of good screens out there that support mini display port. Just because you bought apple, doesn't mean you have to stick with it. Also you can get adaptors such as mini displayport to hdmi or mini displayport to dvi. Both of those adaptors will allow you to connect your MacBook to a regular monitor.

    Hi, Trex8.
    There are a couple things that you can try to resolve this issue.  First, I would recommend processing any updates needed to the computer and iTunes.  You can check for updates in iTunes by selecting the help menu and check for updates.  If iTunes is on the current version, see the article below. 
    iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play iTunes Store purchases

  • Hi,i just bought the Creative cloud membership and i would want to know why is t one year policy and you payed alot of money and still pay for the next month? Annual means yearly right ? why do i have to pay another next month.

    Hi i just want to know i bought the creative cloud and photoshop and premiere. All those and it said annual meaning i have to pay for the next year right? But why did it said that i have to pay for the next month? What happens  when i didn't pay the next month ?

    You may buy an annual subscription and pay monthly, or a straight monthly subscription... and, being a subscription, if you stop paying the software stops working
    If you want a one time payment, and you can use 3+ year old software, go to Creative Suite 6
