itunes gift card 5 euroWill iCloud be dissipated by the coming storm of hackers? Numerous users have reported their iTunes accounts were hacked, blaming a Sega app called Kingdom Conquest for removing funds, and some users had never downloaded the game. Other apps were blamed for draining accounts too. Betanews revealed this news a week ago, and dozens of iTunes users reported their account issues. The same problem has been existent since late 2010, but the number of complains has increased significantly since last May. Some of the victims had their credit card and payment information removed from their account, indicating Apple's awareness of the attacks and its active efforts in protecting the users. Apple has not responded to Betanews in confirming the issue, despite numerous reports indicating a widespread hack into iTunes. Apple's silence leaves users to speculate on the severity of the issue. On the other hand, Sega has confirmed its ongoing investigation. We are currently investigating this claim as well as some others, but since we have no access to any customer's iTunes account information or transaction histories we highly recommend contacting Apple directly, the company said in its online forum. Users are reporting their problems in posts on Apple's Support Communities website. The thread is titled iTunes store account hacked. Some posts are shown below: This happened to me today. I woke up to several emails telling me about payments from my PayPal account. Upon investigation, I found that a free app called Kingdom Conquest had been purchased (quotes because it was a free app) and subsequently several purchases of credits/coins/whatever were made through my iTunes account. They dinged me for about $100 from PayPal and wiped out my iTunes balance as well.iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match[edit] While iTunes 10 supported the Cloud, it did not integrate offline and cloud libraries. A list of previously purchased content was accessible via the iTunes store, where users could download content to the device they were using. Automatic downloading of newly purchased content could also be enabled, and iTunes Match allowed content purchased outside of the iTunes store to be uploaded to the Cloud. With the release of iTunes 11, the Cloud became fully integrated into iTunes. Content stored in a user's Cloud is displayed in the same way as that stored on their device, and online content does not have to be downloaded to be played. Films and TV shows also resume from where they were left off on the last device to have played them. Internet radio[edit] When iTunes was released, it came with support for the Kerbango Internet radio tuner service, giving users a selection of some of the more popular online radio streams available.[74] When Kerbango went out of business in 2001, Apple created its own Internet radio service for use with iTunes 2.0 and later.[75] As of February 2008, the iTunes radio service features 1795 "radio stations", mostly in MP3 streaming format. Programming covers many genres of music and talk, including streams from both internet - only sources and traditional radio stations. iTunes also supports the .pls and .m3u stream file formats used by Winamp and other media players. Since the release of iTunes 7, Apple no longer promotes the Internet radio feature, though it remains in the application. Some third parties offer iTunes plugins that add additional radio stations. In addition, users are able to enter additional stream feeds to listen to in their own music libraries. This is done by selecting the menu item "Advanced" "Open Audio Stream..." or by the hotkey Ctrl - U (PC) or Command - U (Mac).Library sharing One way of sharing a library is over the network, known as network sharing. A user's iTunes Library can be shared over a local network using the closed, proprietary Digital Audio Access Protocol (DAAP), created by Apple for this purpose. DAAP relies on the Bonjour network service discovery framework, Apple's implementation of the Zeroconf open network standard. Apple has not made the DAAP specification available to the general public, only to third - party licensees such as Roku. However, the protocol has been reverse - engineered and is now used to stream audio from non - Apple software (mainly on the Linux platform).[39] DAAP allows shared lists of songs within the same subnet to be automatically detected. When a song is shared, iTunes can stream the song but won't save it on the local hard drive, in order to prevent unauthorized copying. Songs in Protected AAC format can also be accessed, but authentication is required. A maximum of five users may connect to a single user every 24 hours. The multiple, alternate "View" options normally available to iTunes users including "Cover Flow" are disabled when viewing a shared library over a network.[citation needed] In the period before the arrival of inexpensive streaming services, local network
