Michal Marek I ka wā i hōʻike ʻia ai ʻo Tim Cook i kahi hālāwai kūkā i hoʻonohonoho ʻia e All Things Digital, a mākou i haʻi aku ai iā ʻoe, ua ʻōlelo pū ʻia kahi lawelawe i kapa ʻia ʻo Ping. He pūnaewele kaiapili ia e pili ana i nā mele a me nā hanana a puni ia, i hoʻohui pono ʻia i iTunes no kekahi manawa. No ke kākoʻo hou aku i kēia hiki ke kaʻana like i ka ʻike mele, ua ʻōlelo ʻo Tim Cook penei:
"Ma hope o ka noiʻi ʻana i nā manaʻo o ka mea hoʻohana, pono mākou e ʻōlelo ʻaʻole ʻo Ping kahi mea a mākou e makemake ai e hoʻonui i ka ikaika a me ka manaʻolana. Makemake kekahi mau mea kūʻai iā Ping, akā ʻaʻole nui lākou, a pono paha mākou e hoʻōki i kēia papahana. Ke noʻonoʻo nei au.'
ʻO ka hoʻohui ʻana o Ping i iTunes ua loaʻa maoli kahi pane ʻoluʻolu mai ka lehulehu, a hiki iā mākou ke noʻonoʻo i ke kumu.
ʻAʻohe pili me Facebook
ʻO ka mea mua, a ʻo ka mea nui paha, ke kumu i loaʻa ʻole ai ʻo Ping i waena o nā mea hoʻohana o nā polokalamu Apple a me nā lawelawe ʻo ia ka mea ʻaʻohe pili i Facebook. I ka wā mua, kuhikuhi nā mea āpau i kahi pilina aloha ma waena o Ping a me Facebook. Ma hope o ka hoʻopiʻi nui ʻana o Steve Jobs e pili ana i nā "kūlana maikaʻi ʻole" o Facebook, ua huki ʻia ʻo Ping a me nā ʻoihana pūnaewele ʻē aʻe, hopohopo e pili ana i nā hopena o ka hui pū ʻana me Facebook.
ʻO ka hoʻopili ʻana me ka pūnaewele kaiapuni i hoʻohana nui ʻia ma ka honua e maʻalahi loa ka hana ʻana i mau hoaaloha hou ma Ping, a ʻo ka mea holoʻokoʻa hiki ke loaʻa kēia pūnaewele i nā poʻe he nui. He mea paʻakikī ke ʻimi kaʻawale i kāu mau hoaaloha ma Facebook, ʻoi aku ma Twitter, ma Google+ a ma Ping paha.
ʻO ka mea pōʻino, ʻo ka pūnaewele ʻo Zuckerberg kahi mea pāʻani ʻaʻole hiki ke mālama ʻia ma kekahi ʻano, a ma ka hapa nui o nā ʻāina o ka honua ua lanakila loa ia i nā lawelawe like ʻole. I kēia manawa, paʻakikī loa ka hoʻokumu ʻana iā ʻoe iho ma kēia kahua me ka ʻole o ka launa pū ʻana me Facebook. ʻAʻohe mea i ʻike i ke kumu i hiki ʻole ai iā Apple a me Ping ke ʻae i ka hui like ʻana me Facebook, akā ʻo ia ka mea i nalowale nā mea hoʻohana.
Hoʻohana paʻakikī
ʻO kekahi ʻaoʻao ʻē aʻe ʻo ka kaʻana ʻana i ka ʻike iTunes me Pign ʻaʻole i maʻalahi a maʻalahi e like me ka makemake o nā mea kūʻai aku o Apple. Nui nā koho ma ka papa kuhikuhi hāʻule ma ka ʻaoʻao kiʻi a i ʻole ka papa inoa. ʻO ka hiki ke hoʻohui i kāu papa inoa ponoʻī ua kanu ʻia ma ka iTunes Store, a ʻo ka ʻimi ʻana i kēlā me kēia mele ʻaʻole kūpono loa. No laila hiki iā ʻoe ke hana pololei i kāu playlist ma kāu waihona iTunes, akā pono ʻoe e noʻonoʻo pehea e kaʻana like ai ma o Ping.
Ka nele o ka "naʻauao"
Maikaʻi ka ʻimi mua ʻana o nā mea a pau i kā lākou mau hoaaloha a me nā hoa pili ma nā pūnaewele like. Eia naʻe, ʻo ka ʻoiaʻiʻo ʻo ka mea i nīnau ʻia ʻo kāu hoaaloha ʻaʻole ia he manaʻo he like kona ʻono mele. Ma ke kūpono, me kāu ʻae, hiki iā Ping ke hoʻohana i ka ʻike mai kāu waihona iTunes e ʻike ai i kāu leʻaleʻa mele a laila paipai i nā mea hoʻohana a me nā mea pena e hahai. ʻO ka mea pōʻino, ʻaʻole i loaʻa iā Ping kahi hana like.
Eia kekahi, hiki ke loaʻa nā DJ ʻoihana ma Ping i ʻike maoli i kekahi ʻano a mākaukau e paipai i nā ʻāpana mele hoihoi i ka lehulehu. Loaʻa i nā mea pā pōhaku ʻē aʻe kā lākou DJ ponoʻī, nā mea hoʻolohe jazz i kā lākou ponoʻī, a pēlā aku. ʻOiaʻiʻo, hāʻawi nā lawelawe uku like ʻole i kēlā mea, akā ʻaʻole ʻo Ping.
Ke kūʻai aku nei i nā wahi a pau āu e nānā ai
ʻO ka pilikia hope loa akā ʻaʻole ka liʻiliʻi loa o ke kālepa blatant e hoʻopau i ka manaʻo holoʻokoʻa. Hoʻopilikia ʻia ka nohona aloha e nā kiʻi "BUY" maʻamau, e hoʻomanaʻo mau ana iā ʻoe aia ʻoe i loko o kahi hale kūʻai. ʻAʻole pono ʻo Ping he "kūʻai kūʻai" maʻamau me nā mele, akā ma luna o nā wahi āpau e hauʻoli ai ʻoe e ʻike i nā nūhou e hoʻolohe ai.
ʻO ka mea pōʻino, hiki ke ʻike ʻia kahi ʻoihana kūʻai ikaika i ka wā e kaʻana like ana i ke mele ponoʻī. Inā makemake ʻoe e kaʻana like i kahi mele, album, a i ʻole kahi papa inoa ma Ping, hiki i kāu hoaaloha ke hoʻolohe wale i kahi ʻike he kanaiwakūmālua. Inā makemake ʻo ia e lohe hou aku, pono ʻo ia e kūʻai i ke koena a i ʻole e hoʻohana wale i kahi lawelawe ʻē aʻe.
Aia au ma laila, ʻaʻole au e kono
ʻAe, ʻaʻole maopopo iaʻu pehea iā wai ma Czech Republic, akā ʻaʻole hiki iā Ping ke hoʻomaka iaʻu. Hōʻike mau ʻia ua loaʻa kahi "hewa ʻike ʻole (-50)".
He hana ia no kekahi me ka mooolelo Czech?
