4.8 has extra buttons next to the shuffle/repeat/add buttons. it only seems to play .mov at the moment
Huh?

I was thinking that or an addition of (WWDC maybe) an iTunes/Video store (wishful thinking).

Oh ok! Haha I understand your reply too now. :P Yeah, it looks when I tired to play a movie in it, the formate was MPEG1. I thought on the top of my head it's something QT can play, so why wouldn't iTunes? Well, as we all are finding out. It only seems to play one certain formate right now. Which kinda makes useless to me.

They come "special" for an added buck or two with certain album downloads; for example, Dave Matthews Band's "Stand Up."

I fully intend NOT to download this update.

I love my iSync for contact and Calendar syncing. That's NOT iTunes' job, even if it does control the iPod.

And they've put bad video support in - yay. How hard would it have been for them to just incorporate a QT video section (it's pretty easy for every other software developer) which would allow iTunes to support ANY QT-supported codec. Then there's the fact that it dumps your videos in your Music folder, where they clearly don't belong.

I don't know - just very unimpressed. It also apparently does something wacky to shared music, but I can't verify that.

i did download it, and i am using it. but i agree, the video support is sucky.. i'd prefer if they would either: make it work PROPERLY (fully support: any QT codec, Video_TS folders (for dvds on hdd), maybe even HDTV (with a hardware tuner of course)..

whether it's a seperate app, or built into itunes i'm not bothered.. but for the moment i guess i'm stuck with BitPlayer to manage my music vids etc..
