Can't vs won't. I have no doubt that they could do it, but apple didn't get to be one of the most powerful companies in the world by doing the thing that is cheaper for the user.

I started using Lidarr. I have had a bit of a hard time with it not being able to just grab a song.

I think this is more in how I have my expectations and workflow set up. It works great for what it's built for, I need to spend some time to adjust.

I use it with the Deemix plugin and that is great.

Are we talking $10 M pre or post tax?

Post tax, $10M 100%. Not having to work and retiring immediately would be amazing.

I do like the recursive option of the red pill. Do a few loops and find the optimal path.

Time to start sailing the high seas!

They won't use it until they are forced to 100%. iMessage has become a reason people get iphones. Peer pressure at its finest.

You should also put your efforts towards getting apple on RCS. Then you wouldn't need to have multiple apps.

Do you have any old hardware that doesn't have a job? That is a great place to start. Take some time try out different solutions (proxmox, unraid, casa OS). Then as you nail down your needs you can better pick hardware.

Could you link the source? Sounds like an interesting read.
