iTunes 9 crashes Finder, anyone else notice this?

[bbotte]

When I watch a Movie or a TV episode and quit the episode after watching for 10-15 min and turn off iTunes it locks up the Mac and Finder disappears at the top and when you click on finder in the dock is says cannot start finder -1084. Beach ball forever.

I was having a lot of crash problems with iTunes 9, mostly with the app itself, but the whole system just felt a little more fragile. Since reverting to iTunes 8, things have definitely quieted down.
