YAWN..I want wireless syncing.
Me too. I still don't know what's so tough about that.
Got a tip for us?

Apple Releases iTunes 9.1 to Support iPad

I love the down converting of high quality songs but I still have one question.
What does Apple consider higher quality when comparing AAC and MP3?
The reason I ask is cause I would only want this feature to be implemented on my Apple Lossless files. I'd prefer that all my AAC and MP3 files remain intact. I really don't need iTunes down converting a 192k AAC file down to 128k.
Guess I will find out when I get home.

Oh thank goodness...
I really thought that the next iteration of iTunes would be released with the iPad and drop support for Tiger as yet another way for Apple to try to force an upgrade.
This hasn't happened yet. Yay! Downloaded, going to install now and see if I can do me some browsing.

I think it will be unleashed at WWDC then going to public along the new iPods / iPhone later.
The only thing i want from itunes is 64 bit. iPhone OS I want a lot, this is not the thread. However, I don't see the iPad getting a major update, it would be very strange for Apple to launch a device without all features in its OS that could be available, such as the much anticipated multi-tasking.
One thing that is certain though it that the iPhone will be recieving the new colours of the iPad, going from the dark bluish to grey, to the new light blue to whitish.
See this app for what I mean...

Is anyone else's "Radio" checkbox unavailable to check?
I've had this happen before, and FINALLY found out that somehow the parental settings had been changed, despite the fact that I'd never been in that preference pane before. Try that.
Cool idea, poor execution for a number of reasons.
Whether the spectrals are different doesn't mean that the listener is going to necessarily hear "very bad".
First, many if not most recordings ARE still done at 44.1 these days. Where they are taken down is from a 24 bit recording to 16 bit on CD. But going to a lower resolution isn't how "lossless" is defined, it's a word with a very specific meaning in this case.
It's not compression at all, period. Nothing to argue about.
Sorry, but that's not the definition of "lossy". Look it up, the apple dictionary lists it as:
Computing of or relating to data compression in which unnecessary information is discarded.
No data compression, no "lossy".
I almost guarantee Apple wouldn't drop OS support in the middle of a version cycle. IE, because iTunes 9.0 supported Tiger, all iTunes 9.x will support Tiger. You don't need to worry until iTunes 10/X.
milo is correct. Changing the sample rate or bit depth of something reduces its resolution, but that is different than data compression.
The image analog would be the setting on your camera that changes image size--I can tell my 12 megapixel D700 to shoot only 5 megapixel images--versus the setting that changes the compression level, often called "image quality." Those will both reduce the file size, but they are different things.

Crash
After updating iTunes immediately crashes when I plug my iPod Nano in (Mac Pro, 10.6.3). Anyone else have this problem?

It's not really 64 bit. It's just the drivers for the iPhone that are 64 bit. iTunes itself is still 32 bit.
my 3.1.2 iPhone 3G is black aswell, wasn't it always?
the one on the above pic is obviously a 3GS, having the compass app
I plan on loading a whole bunch of reference material on mine. I've got about 10GB of PDFs and other documents that I'll be loading into the DEVONthink iPad app when they release it.
I know people like to assert this but I wouldn't be so sure that the amount of audible artifacts is really different when transcoding from a lossy source that has a reasonably high bitrate to another lossy format, compared to encoding a lossless file directly into the lossy format - or do you have data to prove otherwise ?
The option to downgrade to 128 kbps AAC has been in iTunes for some time, but previously it only applied to iPod Shuffles.
Incidentally there's also an updated version of the iPod Voiceover Framework for those with a third generation iPod Shuffle. I wonder if it resolves the problem where some tracks get voiceovers in a language other than English, or even it if adds a British English voice?
I won't find out until I download it after midnight, once my download cap is lifted.
