Beatmaker2 hits the Itunes app store!

Great news, huh?

Well, no apparently.

I've been a fan of Beatmaker on my I-pod touch for some time now.  I've just got to grips with using it, and I heard, on the Intua forums that a second version was going to be released.  I didn't care how much it cost, I wanted it...

Finally, after a long 'ol wait, it was released.  And it looks absolutely amazing.  A portable studio, in your hand. 

However...




I never check the tech spec when I buy an app.  Becuase it was quite pricey, I thought I had better this time.  Lo-and-behold, by I-pod isn't supported.  So that's me out.  I can't upgrade.  I can't do anything to get the software I want, except...

...buy another I-pod.

Can you see where this is going?  I got my I-pod Christmas before last.  This doesn't make it an old piece of technology.  There used to be a time where things would last for years and years.  And as you can't upgrade Apple products, you are pretty much stuffed.

Don't get me wrong, I love Apple stuff.  It works, and it works well.  However, this has got me thinking about future purchases.  Why bother, if it will be out of date in a couple of years?
