Story time

Long ago, a generation of youths that fit somewhere between the end of Gen X and the beginning of the millennial were introduced to a revolutionary new way to access music. It was called Napster, and despite operating at a mind-numbingly glacial pace, it was glorious.

Napster all at once exposed us to hip tunes previously held hostage on pricey CDs and the radio, and persuaded us to wait upwards of eight hours for a single download of a song off of Green Day’s “Nimrod” album.

Or, if you were like this writer, Britney Spears’ pop thriller, “Stronger.” Hey, it was a long time ago.

Now, just as Napster faded away with the days of yore, iTunes is also going bye-bye. Obviously Apple has many a new app to replace it, but it’s important to pay respect to the streaming programs that raised us.

And so, dear iTunes, we bid you farewell. It was inexplicably difficult to transition our iTunes music from one Apple device to another but we loved you once, and we shall remember you forever.

Alrighty! Onto the good stuff.

The End

Thanks for joining us this week!

Here’s hoping Apple comes up with an easy way to save our iTunes tunes before it all changes. If it doesn’t, we propose a very annoying plan where everyone walks to Apple HQ loudly singing the songs they lost, a capella through the streets, until Tim Cook can’t take it anymore.

See you next time. Happy job hunting.
