Kann Apples Ping<\/a>-Nachfolger, das in Apple Music integrierte K\u00fcnstler-Portal „Connect“ den gro\u00dfen Community-Portalen von Facebook und Twitter die Stirn bieten? Wird Madonna ihre Fans zuk\u00fcnftig nicht mehr mit einem Tweet, sondern mit einem Connect-Eintrag in Apple Music adressieren? <\/p>\n

Vielleicht<\/a>. Bis es soweit ist, wird Apple seine K\u00fcnstler-Community jedoch noch etwas verbessert m\u00fcssen. Dies fordert die Indie-Band Airplane Mode<\/a>, die die Nutzung des Connect-Portals jetzt in einem Blog-Eintrag<\/a> beschreibt und die mobile Bedienoberfl\u00e4che der Connect-Plattform kritisiert. <\/p>\n

Nach Angaben der Band geht nicht nur die Bereitstellung eigener Songs mit vielen H\u00fcrden einher – die Lieder m\u00fcssen erst mal in iTunes importiert und anschlie\u00dfend in „Meine Musik“ verschoben werden – auch der Upload-Vorgang und die angebotenen Kommunikationsm\u00f6glichkeiten lassen noch viele W\u00fcnsche offen. <\/p>\n

Uploading a song in the Music app is clunky. In order to get the song to post, it has to be available in My Music. Which means that I need to import the track to iTunes on my Mac, convince it to sync with my iPhone (a process that took about 12 hours and restoring my phone from a backup), and then go searching for it in a list that doesn\u2019t immediately present with a search field. From there I\u2019m given the ability to edit song artwork and track details, but the \u201cDone\u201d button never lit up for me. I backed out and tried again. Same thing. I made sure all fields were filled in correctly. Maybe my account just didn\u2019t have song posting permissions. Who knows?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Am schlimmsten jedoch, so die Band in ihrem Blog-Eintrag mit der \u00dcberschrift „Disconnected<\/a>“ sei das Fehler einfacher Fan-Einladungen. Aktuell bietet die Connect-Plattform – die ihre K\u00fcnstler \u00fcbrigens nicht \u00fcber die Anzahl der Follower informiert – weder die M\u00f6glichkeit an Fans einzuladen, noch gestattet Connect den Dialog mit registrierten Nutzern : <\/p>\n

But the worst offense of all is this: I can see no way to invite people to follow us on Connect. I can share the link. I can even tweet about it. Yet there\u2019s no way to know how many followers we have, encourage people to follow us, or directly engage with anyone who hasn\u2019t already purchased a song from us on iTunes. That feels broken. Somehow people were able to comment, which is great, but it makes me sad that I feel no sense of\u2026 well, connection. And I really, really want that connection.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Upload zu Connect: Das sehen die K\u00fcnstler<\/h2>\n
