The world is going bonkers - its official! :-P
Having been a Mac user and enthusiast for a few years through work [I'm a graphic designer] I was real happy to hear that iTunes had ben released for Windoze. Finally someone had the common sense to port the ultra stable and small footprint music system from the boffins at Apple.
Of course, somewhere along the line entered the bloat!
On my 2 ghz turbo PC, this drained 97% CPU to play music with the GUI showing, reorganized my 45 gig MP3 collection from my tried and tested genre->artists->albums->songs to a bizarre format of each song in a folder in its root. Seriously, if you love music and well written software - stay away from iTunes!
Now it seems that only Amiga has the 'less is more' ethic to software especially now that Microsoft is biting the Apple! :-D
