iTunes lets you create your own personal digital music library, allowing you to manage and play your music collection with drag-and-drop simplicity. iTunes, the software part of the equation that lets you pack 7,500 songs in your pocket, automatically synchronizes with the sensational new iPod at high speeds over FireWire. iTunes gives you the ability to generate dynamic Smart Playlists that reflect your preferences and listening habits. With iTunes it’s easy to create CDs that play back on in your car, your home stereo, Macs and on Windows-based PCs. iTunes 4 adds the ability to share music among your Macs, play and encode AAC files, and view album art.

    the program we love to hate... but you've got an ipod. i know there's alternatives and plugins for other audio players but somehow tagging and this and that never seem to end up right unless you do it "their way". itunes tags are horribly limited, they need to come up with a standard (still no standard AAC/ALAC tagging convention!) and expand the tag set to include more information. they're just using an MP4 container for their audio. as others mentioned, it says 64 bit, but win7 recognizes it as 32-bit, installs it to the (x86) folder, and even runs it as a 32-bit app... so how is this 64 bit again, apple? just because it'll run on a 64-bit OS doesn't mean it's 64-bit.

    they are making small improvements, like adding jumplist support (with two jumps.. to the itunes store! woo hoo!). social support (facebook, .... who cares)... other extra features most people will probably never use... like genius and party mix, etc. oh yeah.. and "home sharing"... this was invented years ago... it's called a shared folder/network share.

    and btw.. i would never use this for an audio player. horrible sound. foobar2000 or winamp, or whatever your choice.. but this is not for anyone who actually cares how their music sounds.

    so the only reason that i use it.. and most others... is just because they have an ipod and they want full functionality of it.. (firmware updates, etc). uses about 70 megs of memory on startup, that's with 21 CD's in the library and nothing else.

    anyway, i was just expecting more out of iTunes 9, and I was expecting an actual 64-bit program when it is advertised as such..

    too bad most of their products are great. couldn't live without the ipod, and the itouch and iphone are still some of the best gadgets. apple products are always just excessively priced! 30 dollars for a usb charger? 80 dollars for in-ear buds? 20 dollars for a usb cable to hook it up? come on... can we say rape? let's not get into how much their computers cost.

    but that's way past revewing itunes. the opinionated are so opinionated.

    I keep getting a message that this version is intended for 32bit version of Windows, when I've downloaded it twice from the Windows x64 page. I thought I would try the new version of itunes, guess not.

    Usability, design, features, performance...

    All lacking considerably.

    I like the iPod as far as hardware goes. The software, both firmware and iTunes, is the reason I'll be getting a different brand for my next MP3 player.
