I was thinking about purchasing some Frank Sinatra today, so I fired up iTunes and found a “greatest hits” with enough of the good songs to warrant buying it. When I looked in my shopping cart, I say that Apple had some recommendations based on what was in my cart.
Apple, if you are going to upsell me, please explain how Sinatra is related to Kanye and Eminem.
I mean, wouldn’t you think Dino would be a better choice than Kanye?
Thats funny, I had similar beefs when I was looking for Mozart and Pucini.
One might ask who the puppetmasters behind the recommendations are.
I have a hunch the “recommendations” are paid placement.
Yeah Apple is in bed with Kanye and Eminem and their studios. Every time Steve Jobs does a product announcement, he brings one of those guys out with him.
Yeah, it’s pretty weird. It’s probably sponsored.
