Apple’s iLife consumer-level suite of apps has changed dramatically over the years. It has contained as few as three apps and as many as six. It’s cost as much as $79 and as little as zero. It’s been packaged both as an integrated software collection and as a loose confederacy of disparate apps. And now, in its latest evolutionary shift, it’s been placed on the endangered software list, with a reasonable probability that it will, in the not too distant future, go extinct altogether.</p><h2>iPhoto finish</h2>

Now, less than a year later, Apple has revealed (http://www.macworld.com/article/2375212/apple-retires-aperture-and-iphoto-to-be-replaced-with-photos-for-os-x.html) that it will early next year be replacing iPhoto (as well as Aperture) with a newly expanded Photos app for both OS X and iOS.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2452652/with-iphotos-demise-writing-may-be-on-the-wall-for-ilife.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
