That’s awesome! I’m not a musician but just impressed by an app with great focus that stands the test of time. Makes me wonder why Apple doesn’t have an area for exactly this type …

I’m more surprised that it’s taken this long for a big bad tech company (or companies) to exclude software or hardware releases to the EU. No matter how much of a hit to their (ver…
