I am frustratingly disappointed with what Apple has done with my media over the last decade. My media doesn’t feel like it’s mine anymore.
I imported my whole CD collection onto a laptop I had at the time. A couple of years later, I migrated the songs in iTunes from my MacBook to an iMac. I bought iPods and iPhones — managing my music was a dream. Then, I started using Match and iCloud, and I lost numerous songs: dozens of albums worth just gone, or listed with the dreaded dotted cloud. Trying to manage songs on my current iPhone is a nightmare. I got out of the hell that is Match three years ago, but I am screwed. I can’t even buy songs without the fear that I won’t be able to download the file.
