System Requirements for iTunes

[liamkp]

Hi, i was wondering what the system requirements for iTunes is so i dont buy an iPod Touch for basically no reason.

I read somewhere that all you need is a 2.0 USB port, and Windows XP (my current version) with Service 2 pack or later. Is this true?

Those are two basic requirements, but the full list is on the iTunes Download page (left hand side):

So QuickTime is included in the download?

Is the Window-Eyes required, what are the requirements for that?

Yes - QuickTime is included.

Window-Eyes is not required. I'm not even sure what that is.

Window-Eyes is a piece of screen reader software.

It will read the text displayed on a computer screen so that visually impaired people can use the computer.

Using is is entirely optional.

Thank you, does that require anything, or does it require the same thing as iTunes itself?
