Dear Apple Iphone Programmer,
This afternoon, as I was driving home, the following playlist came up while listening to music on 'shuffle' on your device:
And then just as I was about to start banging my head and smashing my fist against the headliner of the van, the following pieces of 'music' came up:
Luckily, I was able to fast forward through all of that dreck.
OK, children, listen up. If I am listening to a shuffled music library, and I turn up the volume and don't fast forward through any songs, that means I like what your little piece of electronics is doing. That does not mean stop playing stuff that rocks to switch to stuff that makes me want to drive into a concrete barrier. If IOS doesn't handle that kind of logic, then fix it. Code, monkey, code!
This afternoon, as I was driving home, the following playlist came up while listening to music on 'shuffle' on your device:
- Metallica, Enter Sandman (Sweet!)
- Guns and Roses, Paradise City (Rock on!)
- Pearl Jam, Jeremy (All Right!)
- Slash - Something off the new album that made my windows vibrate
- Ozzy Osbourne, Crazy Train (AHAHAHAHAHA!)
- Jimmi Hendrix, All Along the Watchtower (SWEET!)
- AC/DC, Shoot to Thrill (ALL RIGHT!)
- Metallica, Wherever I May Roam (GRAAAHHHHH!)
And then just as I was about to start banging my head and smashing my fist against the headliner of the van, the following pieces of 'music' came up:
- The Jonas Brothers - Something whiny
- Miley Cyrus - Something grating
- High School Musical - What the !@#$!@#!@#$?
Luckily, I was able to fast forward through all of that dreck.
