Apple doesn't seem to be making anything but the iPod, all of the accessories are made by other companies like belkin. That kinda sucks. I would like to see how Apple would design some of those accessories.

I love the fact that iTunes for windows talks to iTunes for the Mac. Best feature for my setup at home. Now finally the PC has something to do while I am on the Mac....which is 95% of the time.
 
VERY EXCITING

I thought (just from reading the note here at macrumors) that this was a huge showing.

Yet I still find myself wondering (maybe it was better live in and in person) about the voice recording capabilities. What is the quality level?

All in All.... KICK A**
 
So, the new iTunes 4.1 doesn't include any of those ridiculous new DRM methods like the inaudible gaps in songs that prevent re-ripping, does it?
 
Apple's partnerships with AOL and Pepsi more than negate the negative impact of not including WMA support in iTunes or the iPod. If Pepsi makes a multimillion dollar ad campaign out of this, it'll be a serious boost of publicity for Apple. I'll just have to ask around and see if anybody here at college likes Pepsi, come February 1st. ;) (I sure don't.)
 
jaw is on the floor

Wow. Wow. Wow.

Dude, for a photographer who owns an iPod, just being able to transfer my photos to my iPod is perfect! I couldn't have asked for a better product.

Finally the world will see the quality of Apple first hand.

My hat is off to you Steve.
 
Just ordered my Recording accessory. I can't wait to see what the quality is like on the mic. I was hoping that we could plug our own mics in...

anyone has any idea on how to do that?!

Why does the iTunes webpage look unbelivebly ugly! Thats the worst web/graphic design I have ever seen by Apple! As soon as something that has anything to do with Microsoft appears, it looks like crap!

$50 for a microphone, isnt that a little expencive?
 
iTunes for Windows has killed my PC running Windows 2000 - I can't even get to a logon screen before it freezes!
 
100 million songs by April 2004? With the team up with AOL and Pepsi, it is clear Apple is not going to surrender its leadership to Napster or anyone else without a huge fight. 400,000 songs by the end of the month! And now audio books as well. I'm impressed!
 
Surelty this is momentous!

Apple have really blown the competition to bits with this announcement. 100 million free downloads, massive Pepsi promo, a huge deal with AOL, iPod accessories ..... Apple are on a roll.

What else can be said? Akamai better be ready for the rush of downloads!!!
