As a diehard Apple fanboy and someone that work with audio professionally for a living I'm really angry at Apple's decision. Apple been making more and more decision base on greed and alienating many of their OG fans and supporter. Before Apple shit was mainstream it was the platform for creative community, namely music and audio. There are so many Mac only software for audio that is/was the standard in the industry. Part of Apple's success is due to endorsement from these industry. On the iOS platform there is a very healthy community of music creation app, it's not even comparable on the android side that will very possibly be kill of due to lack of 3.5mm Jack, playing a live set using your iPhone? Good luck when you lose you 100th adapter on the way to the gig. I have ran an entire show off of my phone as an emergency. I've made a bride's day by playing an obscene song off of YouTube on a DJ set.
A lot of people in my industry is equaling mad at this. Many of us also are audiophile ourselves with hundred and thousands of dollar in headphone DAC etc. We are also the people that actually Pay for music, put up with ridiculous DRM crap. Pay for extra iCloud storage, even purchase legitimate Mac only production softwares . Bluetooth deliver good sound quality. Lol please come again in 200 years. As good as wireless technology is today. The professionals still go wire.
I had the first generation iPod. I have several Mac + MacBooks. I've had every single iPhone since the first iPhone. I've always been on a every two year upgrade. And this time it makes me really sad that when the days comes to upgrade my iPhone 6 I have to take a serious look at android options. maybe Apple will make their money back on wireless crapphones and adapter in comparison to all the revenue lost of cancelling on monthly service and android jump shipper.
Who knows but I'm really really piss and I freaking love Apple =\
