Lately, there is like a thing in my iphone's itunes that requires wifi or a tower? what could that possibly be? i have my 60 gigs of music stored locally! why does my itunes zone out and do a no connection screen?

Your phone's iTunes or your phone's Music? Music tries to connect to Apple Music to try to get you to buy a subscription.

I have my music all local, too. At this point I assume Apple is eventually going to stop supporting music stored locally.

Thanks for the heads up. So the last semblance of the iPod is dead, then. I'll never be voluntarily updating anything ever again.
