You are so off-subject. the Itune store format AAC 256 kbps is a medium low quality. We would need Apple LossLess to get the CD quality. I think Itunes store should sell Files under Apple lossless format. I calculated AAC 256 has only 18% of the data contained in a CD. In other words, when you buy an Itune Album, you get 18% of the data that is on the CD because CD:2 channels * 44,100 * 16 bits= 1,411,200 bits/s. so (itune)256 000 / (CD)1,411,200 = 0.18 COMPRESSION HAS NO FUTURE !
Exactly. All these pinheads have wet dreams of owning the format so they can be the one standing there getting 99c for every song and how that all ties into future licensing & advertising revenue mechanisms. It’s old thinking (and this is a guy in his 40’s who was in tech in the early days saying that) Brilliant ideas happen every day at major companies but they must be approved by the same stale pack of dinosaurs who seek to control, advertise at & otherwise bludgeon people. It’s pathetic.
as long as customers are being fucked, i wont buy anything in those stores. i want to buy the right to own the song/movie/episode whatever. if i lose it, i want to redownload it, i want to copy it on my player/cell/friends computer. until i get this, i will pirate on!
yeah its REALLY bad when the itunes /quicktime installer is what..70 mb? SERIOUSLY? all i wanna do is play some damn music.. whats worse is the zune software is literally almost twice the size..
Itunes sucks period. Foobar2000 and winamp own the shit out of itunes. Plus, MP3tag is a good id3 tagger that actually saves tags and keeps them consistent unlike how itunes always screws them up >:(
itunes is getting better. it take up a lot of ram, but its getting better.

I stick to CDs and i have no problems
yea
is this before chris went to mac?
I have no problem with iTunes on windows, it came ready installed my PC (as iTunes 4) and used it for 3 years….
No Problems soo far…
sometimes MPEG or MP3s wont convert to AAC in itunes and you get a unknown error ( -50 ) which is NOT FIXABLE! lol…itunes sucks so bad
what is the difference from aac to a regular song
whiney geekfag. i agree though.
The VLC media player play almost any file type including flv file type which is the file that youtube uses.
k idc anymore i really am not a huge time spender on itunes i think its cool though
