OS 6, and Djay app for iPhone
Days
ago, I was prompted by my iPhone 4 to upgrade to OS6. I hesitated because Apple never gives without taking. As is the case with their hardware,
when Apple makes a change to its software it’s always a case of “we’re giving
you THIS, but you no longer have THAT”.
The Apple team makes it really hard to be a hardcore fan of their
products.
What
do I think of OS 6? My iPhone 4
has been noticeably sluggish since the so-called upgrade. Most of the changes are either cosmetic
or “only for iPhone 4S or iPhone 5”.
Once again, Apple slaps customers in the face for not buying their most
expensive products.
Such
is also the case for the app Djay for iPhone. I found myself mildly excited to be informed that
there were much needed changes and additions to the Djay software in its latest
upgrade. That is…until I realized
that I was excluded because I didn’t own the iPhone 4S or iPhone 5. New features like “pitch control” were
just beyond my grasp because I didn’t spend an extra chunk of change on my
already overpriced Smartphone built by Chinese slaves.
It’s
a small annoyance because in the big scheme of things actually doing a gig with
Djay on your iPhone is kind of like bringing an air rifle to a gunfight. Does it bother me enough to switch to
Windows? Hell no. The only thing worse than Windows is
not having a computer at all. In
closing, OS 6 is an unnoticeable change and Djay is an equally unnoticed change
due to the fact that I hardly use the software anyway. Being excluded from improvements via
financial discrimination only guarantees that I’ll use the Djay software even
less in the future.
