iTunes for Windows

[mollipen]

So, hey, you know what? Don't have it organize your music automatically. Problem solved. I've used iTunes for over two years, and can't recall ever having the fits over file organization that you people are having. At the same time, though, I organized a lot of stuff myself, had iTunes leave it that way, and only let iTunes do its own organization when bringing in new music from CD - which, so long as you have your tags proper, works just fine.

Technical problems, though, I'm not surprised to hear, considering that this is for the most part a 1.0 release on Windows. Apple is typically pretty good about getting updates out, so if a lot of people are having these problems, I wouldn't be surprised to see a 4.1.2 or whatever release in the near future.

More iTunes rants and caterwauling.

Since when do dirty hippies have internet connections and the ability to make webpages?

Seriously, they might have a very valid point. But pointing a finger and yelling at Apple about it is totally going about it the wrong way. Blame the right people.

Because people NEVER get tired of bitching. That's what this is all about! Bitch, bitch, bitch. And yes, hey, "U2 " IS different from "U2", in terms of characters. All iTunes is dealing with is what you gave it. If you don't care to fix it, don't complain about it. How does the program know? I find the iTunes organization system perfectly sensible, and I have since its first release, because I actually take care to keep my ID3 tags in order, and as a result, iTunes keeps my music where it ought to be. It's a good system if you'll take the time to realize what it's doing and organize within it.

MusicMatch knows "U2"="u2"="U2 "

[Diff-chan]

anyone who listens to U2 doesn't deserve to own a computer.

Fix your tags, you lazy bastards.

i don't actually it was just the easiest band name to type out

MusicMatch knows "U2"="u2"="U2 "

Got annoyed and decided to test it myself. Hey, what do you know, so does iTunes! Probably because it's impossible to differentiate between "u2" and "U2" when making a folder name.

I think everybody just needs to wash the sand out of their collective vaginas, that's all.

Why the fuck is it making duplicate (non working) entrys in the playlist and losing tracks when it knows where it is? That's one buggy bitch we're talking about here.

[Diff-chan]

Damn Im burning a disc now and let me say this is the best mp3 program I've used. It was like fucking four of the easiest steps in the world to make a CD:

01. Make a smart playlist which required no work other than clicking the "Smart Playlist" button and typing the first two letters of the band's name.

02. Clicking the BURN CD button in the Smart Playlist window.

03. Putting in a CD.

04. Clicking the WRITE DISC button.

Jeez I remember when I used MusicMatch it was a pain in the ass, I remember you had to drag and drop, and shit when I used Nero I had to go through a goddamn wizard and then drag and drop and name the file and damn...

and dont get me started on Windows Media Player... its interface is absolutely unusable for doing anything but watching pirated movies and porn. It is trash.

but this is awesome. This is how software should be!

Sure iTunes may be buggy and a system hog but Apple's got software design down 600000000x better than anyone else out there.

edit, I just imported a CD which involved me putting the CD in the drive and clicking that context sensitive button that then said "Import"... this is so intuitive its ridiculous.

The irony of this statement being used to defend an Apple product is just golden.
