iTunes 8.0

pretty, but not something I really want...

iTunes 8.0 was released today, tuesday the 09th.

 

Instal was easy and when I opened up iTunes it was pretty, in its new album art viewing mode. They've also added something called Genius, which adds a sidebar to iTunes that tries to force-feed you new music from their store. 

In addition, the memory usage of iTunes is up well over 4x what it was before, about 70k in album art view mode and now approx. 318k. Can anyone say memory hog?

They need to update the itunes store, they don't have crap for movies.

I hadn't yet seen the new visualizer when I posted... it's awsome!

 

Is this original or did they purchase it from someone else? (I've heard rumors)

 

Furthermore, iTunes takes up the sams memory no matter which view is being used, which is terrible for people using machines with less than 3 gigs of memory, especially in conjunction with Vista...
