iTunes 7 Is Here

Of the many new features in iTunes 7, one stands out for me. iTunes is now able to fetch missing CD cover arts for you … free.

This is one feature I didn’t think Apple would put in. Think about it, the Get Album Art feature essentially eliminates an incentive for buying from iTunes Music Store over buying the CD and ripping it. Fortunately for us, Apple thinks in the long term and is making the best even better.

As a user, I love this new feature. As the author of SizzlingKeys, I’m glad I have been putting off the addition of such a feature in SizzlingKeys! :-) That effort would have gone straight down the drain had I started working on it to match some of the competition (Synergy, for instance).

    Great sofware - been using for quite some time. However, it seems a LOT more sluggish with iTUnes 7.0. When I try to rank a song via hotkeys - it takes much longer than what the old performance was. I’m runnning on a PPC powerbook G4. Any thoughts?
