[yudi_lks]

I see you can now also add PDFs to the library, but search doesn't index them :p

AM I the only one who cannt install itunes in xp?.. when installing it gives me that service error 0.. last time I installed itunes, I had to uninstall SP2 , install itunes and then install SP2 again.. anyone know how to fix this?

Second:

Well, they have seemed to fix a few "issues" and added some stuff BUT!

I have a music libary with some 100GB of data... All added into the neat little iTunes... Whenever I close iTunes  my CPUload goes BALISTIC! (i mean 98%-100% load constantly for 3-4 minutes). I've been told that this has to do with iTunes writing "stuff" into its files in the libary (and that seems to be right) but Apple... Have you thought this through? This means that I can't use my computer for a few minutes each time I quit iTunes???

They should really let the user take care of the backup instead of forcing it by the application...

Oh...

I'm running AMD x64 (with WinXP x32) and 2GB of DDR2 RAM. Should be efficient (IMO).

Suggestions?

I had the same problem with 512MB of RAM and 20,000 tracks in my library. Adding another 512MB stick of RAM caused the processor usage to only last about 45 seconds.

On my machine, sharing finally works, library searching is MUCH faster, and the video is a nice touch...

If you want to check out one of the cheaper sets of paid music/movie videos, check out the Gorillaz Feel Good Inc Single. The title track and three seperate videos for $0.99. :)

I think becoz now they are providing album art (complete mini books) in pdf format with some album purchases ...

However again this would really be nice on a video iPod (large screen) if you could view the pdf while playing the music. Not something I'd everyday, but whatever :p

Was thinking the same, before he corrected himself :laugh:

In case you guys didn't know, the albums in the iTMS will come with some sort of lyrics sheet/Info/Story/etc. page that will be in PDF. That's why now you can add PDFs to your iTunes Library. Just search for "Dave Matthews Band" and you will see that their newest albums comes with a PDF and a video.

Just my $0.02

Oh and one more thing, the music videos purchased from iTMS don't have any DRM, meaning you can share them with others, (but it doesn't mean you should :D )

If you leaving running for a few hours, the CPU usages seems to hit 100% :( I've had it happen on 2 machines :(

I wish iTunes had builtin updater. :(

It's very annoying how I have to download and install on top of existing version everytime new version is released.

Also, I wonder when the new version of multi plug-in compatible with the new version will be released.

I can't live without it. >_<

I had this exact same problem with iTunes 4.7, and eventually ANY Installshield installer. In the long run, uninstaling SP2 **** itself, so I ended up reformatting
