Software bloat is a term used to describe the tendency of newer computer programs to have a larger installation footprint, or have many unnecessary features that are not used by end users, or just generally use more system resources than necessary, while offering little or no benefit to its users. So I thought I’d take a look at this question, and the common answers, in an attempt to determine once and for all whether iTunes deserves to be called bloated.įirst of all, how do you define “bloated?” Wikipedia offers the following in the introduction to its article about software bloat: Few people actually explain why they feel the program is bloated, and those who do have reasons that I tend to disagree with. As an author who specializes in explaining iTunes, I hear this often, yet many of the complaints I hear don’t go further than hurling that invective at the program. There’s a collocation that’s becoming increasingly common: the proximity of the words “iTunes” and “bloated.” Google those words and you’ll get about 220,000 results. #1586: Apple Q4 2021 financial results, Hide My Email tutorial, Windows on M1 Macs, m圜harge battery, Insta360 GO 2 action cam.#1587: iOS 14.8.1, HomePod Software 15.1.1, Monterey upgrade issues, FaceTime screen sharing and SharePlay, temporary iCloud Backup space, Screen Time oddity.
