I also have not seen the feature that was listed where version 8.1 will allow autofill on any iPod just like it does for the Shuffle.

I wasn't planning on using that feature.
So does Netflix.

The Ministry of Truth strikes again.

Note: Remember Arnold's "I'll be back"? Yep, this feature will return!
I mean it works, that's about all.
And based on what we have read of Apple's development culture they probably did pull it one day before launch. This required a monster regression and UAT exercise (all hands on deck).
Someone rumored that 'stops like this are typically legal in nature'. I wonder if there is a patent specifically on what Genius does already in existence, so they pulled it to avoid legalities?
It seems that apple is getting sloppy without Steve at the wheel.
We put in a call to Apple to see if they could tell us what happened to the missing feature and reached Apple spokesman Tom Neumayr, who told Macworld, "The feature isn't live yet, but it will be in the coming days."
The concept is silly for movies and tv anyway so it's just as well they pulled it.
How many people keep enough videos in iTunes for that to be effective anyway.
