I'm trying to paste here the direct link, but I cannot get it. Google Chrome download manager. I'm still learning how to use it.

iTunes 8 will most likely be released this Friday along with the iPhone/iPod Touch Firmware 2.1

Apple says it is making iTunes 8 available immediately (which, to them, may mean "some time later"), so let the download races begin!

Somehow I don't think he is going to reply now. Or his browser might have just crashed.

Does anyone know if Apple is allowing the Genius feature on the last gen iPod Classic? All they did this time around was bump up the 80GB to 120GB and got rid of the 160GB model.

Sweet! :D

[Snakehn]

Nope it's out today as said by God himself. God is never wrong.

it's out today because chuck norris said it, or else...

[PL_ Veteran]

Guess they're trying to phase out the iPod classic. No mic support, no accelerometers, no tilted screen, no Genius support...

Same goes for the shuffle. New colours, great. Now how about something more? Better storage maybe?

My thoughts too.

Radish?

I sure hope iTunes 8 runs better than iTunes 7 on Windows :whistle:

[Boo Berry]

I don't really care how well it runs, as long as it fixes the Vista iTunes UI blackout issue. :p

Why would you need to use ipod classic sideways? Adding accelerometer(s) just for shuffle seems pointless to me. It was added to Touch mainly for games I think.

[CY:G]

Yeah they are done with the classic, i have a 160 gb Classic and it has a lot of issues, it doesnt seem like they are upgrading the firmware any time soon.

+1 That's soooo annoying!!

+1, and it would be nice if you could stop iTunes from opening when you plug in an iPhone. I sync on my macbook, but I charge here at work with a dock plugged into my monitor's USB, and every time I do I get a mysterious black window pop up, haha.

Thanks for the links, DLing now.

Software Update just pulled a Quicktime update, so should be shortly for iTunes 8

Exactly what I was thinking. I don't have to many problems with it on Vista x64, but it still seems to run a little slow.

On a completely different topic, I hope that Dexter is available in HD on iTunes :yes: I don't get Showtime (only show I watch is Dexter, so kind of pointless to pay $7+/month for only one show).

[Prosidius]

For the record, even though the Apple site lists 7.7 as the latest version, clicking download will download iTunes 8.
