I can’t believe I was stupid enough to install a point-oh release from Apple. itunes 7 sucks when it comes to playing music — the first priority for the software in my opinion. Playback is marred by pops and hisses, especially when accessing a CD-ROM. It just feels that it’s suddenly expanded to fill availabe RAM and swap.
Thank god for last.fm. Their new player rocks. Regarding iTunes, guess I’ll grit it out until the bugfix release.
