iTunes 7

woo

yep agree been playing with it all day and i like it.
the new iPod management is good and the jukebox style cover art just looks excellent.
only complaint is my video option has gone and the music videos aren't showing up except in a playlist which is a bit poor.

Doesnt changing the way the library is viewed sort that? those 3 buttons in the top right corner (under title bar.. next to search one) - that may disaply thumbnails for music vid's instead of library.. maybe.. dnt have any so dont know

they've stopped saving Album Art inside the music file. There's now a seperate folder in Itunes.

Most the ones Itunes has autodownloaded of me are 500-900 KB :shocked:

I know they want hi quality pics for their new displays but really!
About 20 times the filesize of my previous album art.

woo

yeah i noticed that too.. plus getting the album art is a bit hit and miss, i have loads of albums that are in ITMS but for some reason it wont grab the art.
having to do a lot manually.
also it is splitting some albums up for no apparent reason - having to set the 'album artist' (new field) to join it all to appear as one album.

They would also want you to go and fork out for the 80GB version.:eek:

Yeah, the only use I've found for the Album Artist field is just to type "various artists" to get it to join compilations together.
