I was comparing the sound of real instruments to the sound of streamable audio files.
But I guess the point flew right past you.

But sure, I bet Andre Rieu uses an iPad to compose.
And if Debussy was alive he'd be using the Perfect Piano app.

Seriously kys.
>>
>>100385068
>You wouldn't find that trumpet or piano on any trasheap anon. That arcade machine could also fetch a good amount of money.
that probably means they're fakes anon. because it's easier to fake it than to pay collectors money to aquire one, wouldn't you think? hold on though, do you think that if you actually crush all that stuff together you get an ipad? or do you really think there are 100 ton presses just sitting around in nice clean warehouses as well? do you think apple went out and bought one, and then set it up, and then got all that shit together, and then went over take after take after take to get everything nice and perfect, going through multiple examples of all your rare technojunk?

is that what you think?

fucking autists are not smart like they think they are.
>>
>>100385215
>The message is tone-deaf and evil regardless.
no it's not, you're just mentally ill and neurotic.

>>
>>100385380
Like I said (three times already), it's probably CGI but that's besides the point. It's cultural subversion. You are not allowed to enjoy real things anymore, you must embrace the consoomer product and the autotune pop artists. Meanwhile the elites will keep watching the Vienna Philarmonic live, it's just not for plebs anymore. But I guess you don't mind.

Regardless of my opinion above, the message IS tone deaf, because the campaign has backfired and the normies are pissed off.
>>
>>100385366
>the sound of real instruments to the sound of streamable audio files
Which doesn't make much sense when talking about tools. A human given a trumpet and a piano couldn't even play them at the same time. At best you'd potentially have a better piano solo vs having iPad play it, but it's not like you can transfer the shit you made there into a performance on real instruments either.
>I bet Andre Rieu uses an iPad to compose
He wasn't lucky enough to grow up with it. Composers using modern tools and changing the ones they have is pretty much the norm no matter the time.
>if Debussy was alive he'd be using the Perfect Piano app.
Not unlikely. Piano lessons these days are more expensive than they were then due being a bigger niche.

>>100384819
The idea that a phone/tablet/laptop/etc combine together obsolete technologies is not new. The ad goes a step farther and destroys objects that have sentimental valence. These are not mere tools, these are artifacts; symbols. Apple is symbolically crushing beauty, tactility, experientiality, immersion, nostalgia, possession, and replacing it with a small sterile brick. Your four course meal served by a waiter on fine china is replaced with a meal pill in a bottle. It might have the same nutritional value, but it is absolutely not an equivalent product. The ad calls to mind dystopian fiction, shaved-headed peons sleeping in pods and all wearing the same white shift. "Oh little timmy, you want to be a painter? Well then, open up the painting app on your art-tablet and follow the tutorial bot". Like >>100384436 says, it calls to mind the 1984 ad, except now apple is the big brother, and they will accept no dissent as they relentlessly crush you under their weight. It sends a very strong message, but unfortunately for apple, not one that comes across as at all positive.

yeah nah suck a dick this is an incredibly effective advertisement
it conveys the message perfectly, easily understandable by everybody on the planet
you can easily play this advertisement on any screen in any country and receive new purchases

but credit must be given to the marketing team for coming up with this
it is not complex or innovative, but effective

guys the "we are autistic!" thing is just a meme... there are literal graveyards of thousands and maybe millions of those items trashed and you're complaining about a quantity that you'd see in a SINGLE house

When Nintendo released the WiiU, they included a system transfer UI in which a bunch of pikmin collect all of your apps and saves, clean up your Wii, say goodbye to it, thank you for playing, and then move to the WiiU, where they unpack all of your stuff and put up a picture of your old Wii with a heart.

the apple ad is confused, it focuses on destroying "old" technology, but then also seems to imply that it was all put into the ipad or whatever that thing is, there's a discontinuity
the pokemon ad does not show any destruction, nor does it even make any destruction sounds, because it was never about destruction, it was a cartoonish reduction in size to a gameboy and nothing more

Yep, all the non-retarded /pol/acks either kermitted suicide or quit politics altogether once 8ch became qboomer central. You've just further confirmed this for me.
See, the smart ones would realize this is an ample opportunity to bring into public knowledge the differences between the responses for riots burning down cities and these little protests. The smart ones would bring into the light how laws are being passesd making it illegal to criticize a foreign nation, laws are being passed at the behest of foreign nations. But the smart ones are all gone, and all we're left with are the retarded and the schizoiphrenic, busy crying about jews because an entertainment medium has a black person in it or a collection of colors are standing next to each other.

well like i mentioned here >>100391086
it was never even implied that the pokemon were being crushed, it's cartoon logic, they're being reduced down to fit in a gameboy
it's childish logic, which suits a pokemon for gameboy ad just fine
the apple one, i don't know what the take away is, they seem to imply everything is reduced to this ipad thing, but they also literally zoom in on everything being destroyed, so idk, old bad new good?

It's like something you'd have a parody of an evil corporation do in a pixar movie
>>
Seemed like CGI plus some practical effects, but I'm watching on my phone and just woke up so I can't tell.
It does feel very disconnected, like out of touch with where people are at with finances; you could have done this commercial in the 90s when everyone was very prosperous, or the 70s, and there would be few objections, it would be wasteful but not "see all this nice shit, you stupid fucking poor people? We crushed it yo make an iToddler device. Another round of layoffs coming."
>>
What I don't get about it is that, if the message of the ad is that all of these things now FIT in the thinness of an iPad, why most of the ad shows those things being destroyed.

Like, maybe if it had been cartoony or the things had jumped into the iPad or even if they'd been accordion'd into a thin slab that was then revealed to be the iPad with them all inside or something. But most of the ad is just the things being broken. The iPad only shows up incongruously at the end.
>>
>>100392881

>>
>>100392915
Yeah, an edgy '90s version of the ad would have done well back then because there was a lot of optimism about tech ADDING to things. Putting out an ad where all these nice things are destroyed while we're concerned about tech REPLACING things is monumentally tone deaf.

>>100392930
Well it is slightly humorous and cartoony and cinematic but more subtle than your ideas.
I'm guessing the idea is destroying the old because it's outdated, plus shock value and spectacle. The stuff blowing apart looked exaggerated via practical effects or something, certainly it was many items crushed one by one and green screened together. The eyes popping out of the skull of the emoji was clearly humorous (in a dark way).
But yeah, it's not a hopeful presentation, more like at the end of a Hellraiser movie when the Hell Cube finishes devouring everyone and puts itself back into a tiny box, that's what it felt like to me

iPad is the sloppiest of sloppy devices. It doesn't do anything particularly well, but everybody buys them because "I need a tablet, a phone, and a laptop!" Why do you need a tablet for anything. It's worse than a phone and a laptop for literally everything.
>>
>>100393130
Yeah, I can definitely see why they thought it would work. Seeing things crushed is satisfying, blowing away stuff that's no longer needed is a powerful statement, the iPad is thin so it fits thematically, it all makes sense on paper.

The problem is that they chose to take the one somewhat unpleasant implication there (the old stuff has to go away) and instead of assuaging or ignoring that, they made destroying that stuff the focal point of the entire fucking ad!
>>
>>100393184
It's good when you need to do a power point for someone on the go or a checklist with adjustable settings that responds to IoT. it's predominately for business. Normies buying ipads are retarded.
>>
>>100393224
This. If I were to show up to a meeting without my iPad, I'd be fired on the spot, laptops don't cut it. You need something you can pull stuff up on and slide across the table dramatically and then have the old geezers who don't how to work a computer just touch.

It's implied. Maybe they should've shown the stuff on the screen so you'd get it, but that's what they're implying. It's not "We destroyed this stuff! Now look at this iPad!" It's "All this stuff got crushed down into an extremely thin iPad because the iPad does all these things."

Why destroy? They could have conveyed the same message without that. It's clearly a very distinct direction for shock via a half-cocked production meeting without any further analysis of the implications.

It is quite literally just an ad that combines the fun of hydraulic presses with the appeal of all-in-one functionality.

it's not tiktok, it's influencers in general, they were forming an apprehensive public opinion of Apple over the years, bringing attention to "green" aspect with their device repair/recycle policy and anti-consumer practices, while also pushing legislators towards forcing unificaton (dropping proprietary Lightning) and making developer environment less anal. Apple hate is now popular. Freudian complex of hating what you can't own plays its role too.

Obviously, I uninstall any apps I don't use and that includes widgets which I'm sure would use a lot.
>>
I think its a cool advert, but none of the items squashed are not included in any other modern tablet, so it doesn't really tell me what is particularly good about the ipad other than their advertising budget and people
that goes for most phones and tablets though, they are at a level where they can do generalised computing, but they all remain locked down, so they're very similar bar a few gimmicks that pass quickly
also if you're mad about a few thousand dollars of stuff being destroyed for an advert, consider how much waste every company on earth produces every day, apple included, and realise it is not a big deal, it is routine
>>
>>100384916
collectables are funkopops for old people
>>
>>100386443
if real, they may have reinforced it so the cans go (which themselves are weakened at select points) then trigger some movie quantity explosives to have it split at the right moment
quite a few of these items give off more dust and fragments when they 'go' than they realistically would and they 'go' in a more all-at-once fashion than they would too, so I would guess they used that technique throughout
it may be miniatures as well, the crusher is of course not real at full scale

Why? They are crushing a lot of products into a single new product. It's a basic, yet effective message. I wouldn't even call it symbolism because it's extremely on the nose. It did not invoke any emotions in me beyond reasonable amusement.

Not an Apple fag, but seems like a good ad. I wonder how much cocaine their marketing department goes through in a week.
>>
>>100396710
It bothered me because the crushing was gratuitous and unnecessary, and they seemed to go out of their way to telegraph to the viewer that it was supposed to be disturbing. The iPad showed up for 2 seconds.

The crushing is the whole premise of the ad, what are you talking about? They are taking a bunch of shit and compressing it into a small device.
>they seemed to go out of their way to telegraph to the viewer that it was supposed to be disturbing.
It's eye catching, clearly inspired by the Hydraulic Press Channel. Also, I have seen a lot worse in ads.
>The iPad showed up for 2 seconds.
This is just how such ads go. This isn't unusual at all.

That would be the innocent take on the ad but they intentionally made it look like the items actually get destroyed to rile people up and get them to talk about the ad and the product.
>>
>>100397171
The degree to which people don't seem to get your complaint here makes me wonder if I'm out of step with society; we literally all agreed that crushing something to death while it's aware of that happening is disturbing just a decade or so ago. Has that changed?
