Artists Being Asked to Prepare for iTunes 11 Launch in "Next Days"

MacRumors · Nov 21, 2012, 11:44 AM

According to a post on the MacRumors Forums, Apple is asking record labels to submit pictures and galleries of their artists to iTunes for use in iTunes 11's new Music Store layout.

This email was sent to artists by German music distribution service Feiyr. iTunes 11 was delayed at the end of last month and is supposed to ship by the end of November.

MalcolmJID · Nov 21, 2012, 11:47 AM

Excellent news, been waiting for this update!

yly3 · Nov 21, 2012, 11:48 AM

But but.. will it work on my 10.5.8 PowerBook G4 ?

deannnnn · Nov 21, 2012, 11:49 AM

Seems legit.

Hakone · Nov 21, 2012, 11:50 AM

Tuesday would be nice... along with that one desktop computer that no one's been asking about.

Tuesday would make perfect sense for the release day, especially since Tuesday is when new music is released

The update actually grabs you by the scruff of your neck and forces you to buy a Retina MacBook Pro.

I think it's time for you to get a new Mac.

Will do, I will be the first to buy the Retina MacBook 2 next year. Never get the first revision I always say

Why? iTunes remains up to date on PCs of that age.

Wrong. There is nothing wrong with my PowerBook G4 1.5 . I use it daily for my PPC apps, I use my 2008 MB with .7 daily too, but PPC macs will always have a special place in my heart....

Considering iTunes 10 still does, I almost wouldn't be surprised. But maybe not if they've actually undertaken a significant rewrite instead of bloat-adding this time.

towg · Nov 21, 2012, 12:29 PM

Wow - what news!

The next few days. Hardly surprising as its been announced to come out in November and its the 21st.

Dull, boring non news item.

iTunes XI

The most anticipated and (soon to be) the most reviled version of iTunes to date

slb · Nov 21, 2012, 01:13 PM

There are only 9 days left in the month, so "next days" isn't saying much.

Aspasia · Nov 21, 2012, 01:26 PM

Not sure whether to be excited or scared.

baryon · Nov 21, 2012, 02:38 PM

I think "up next" will be freaking amazing. That's what I've always wanted: a way to listen to a song but then resume playing your playlist, wherever you were.

RdeCourtney · Nov 21, 2012, 02:44 PM

Strange that there's no iTunes 11 in the IOS Developer Area...

bushido · Nov 21, 2012, 03:04 PM

interesting to see the prices for each picture upload to the iTunes store from one of his screenshots

faroZ06 · Nov 21, 2012, 03:09 PM

New layout for music downloads? What's wrong with the current one? It's a very bad sign when they fix something that isn't broken. What DOES need to be redone is the layout when you're browsing for movies.

Why do people WANT iTunes updates? All they do is drop support for older Macs.

adamryan1983 · Nov 21, 2012, 03:13 PM

Yes!! Bring it!

Obi-Wan Kubrick · Nov 21, 2012, 03:51 PM

I want music not pictures.

i0Nic · Nov 21, 2012, 07:33 PM

Use Rdio, Spotify and iCloud. iTunes? Haven't used it since the day iOS 5 launched.
