iTunes has enough servers

The solution could be a server version of iTunes, which would let households organize all of their family’s media on one computer and allow each user to connect to this Mac to listen to music, view videos, and sync their iOS devices.

I used to think this, but I don’t anymore. From a design perspective it’s clear this should live in the cloud. Spotify have demonstrated it’s technically possible, but perhaps not as profitable. This makes me inclined to believe rumours that Apple might be quite happy for things to stay the way they are.

Of course, that doesn’t mean Apple aren’t preparing for it anyway.
