    Default Apple trying to kill Pandora?

    Buzzy know that many of you listen to music while working on your websites. And at least some of you listen to Pandora while you work. That's why when word came out that Apple was considering building a music service that would compete with and eventually kill Pandora, Buzzy started to worry. Buzzy is definitely not in the Apple universe, and taking Pandora away would be a crushing blow to productivity.

    Apple, Pandora, iHeart Radio hopefully it will be the best service that makes it. If Apple service is not as good I don't think people will abandon the service they are using. I think internet music will go on even when Apple enters the market.

    This isn't about the best service making it. Of course you want the best service to make it. This about Apple bouncing Pandora out of its App store because it has its "own version." Apple wants developers to make apps for iOS. But don't be too successful. Because if you are, Apple will kick you off of their platform and do it themselves.

    Just like they added their own maps and removed Google maps, not cool to take away the choice, but you can still access through the browser.

    Are we so spoiled by apps that we will stop using a service if there is not an app for that? Are bookmarks obsolete now?
