I really love Lala.
Lala is simply a superb web based music player that has a *gasp* business model.
As it turns out, Lala is SO good at what they do, Apple, the love child of the blogosphere, decided they were worth purchasing!
Yay for them!
I think?
I am going to be honest, one of the reasons I supported Lala so much was because it wasn’t iTunes. iTunes just sucks to be quite honest. It is an obese piece of software that needs to go on the Taco Bell drive-thru diet. But hey, who am I to judge?
This isn’t the most depressing part of the Apple buy-out though. The most depressing part is that Lala is now exclusive with Apple. Which means my hopes, dreams and personal desires that Lala would come over to the light and build an app for Android has been all but dashed.
We all know Apple likes to keep things within yanking distance, and providing a competing platform with something as lucrative as Lala is just stupid on Apple’s part. Also, Apple’s and Google’s in bed relationship is slowing turning into a two bedroom apartment, with sound proof walls to dampen the sound of ongoing affairs.
With all that said, I will answer my own question. No, Lala will never be on Android and that is just a damn shame.
I could go off and bitch about how Apple needs to be more open and bla bla bla, but why would I do it?
They are making bank being closed as hell, kudos to them.
