iTunes 7.7.1¶
158 words on iTunes
Despite the number increases the last few iTunes updates seemed mostly irrelevant. The typical consequences of Apple’s odd decision to make everybody and his dog update their huge music player because they released a new revision of a phone, along with adding to their music player an application store for iPod touch and iPhone owners. In short: irrelevant for music lovers but quite possibly important points on the ‘strategy’ slides of some MBA type person.
Now the iTunes 7.7.1 update came along and it hopefully fixes some bugs (whichever those might be - Apple software tends to be bug-free, I think) and also represents progress in the Mobile Me cockup department. Apple’s customers and shareholders can rejoice to see their money going to an intern changing all strings related to ‘push’ services in iTunes back to formulating things in terms of synchronisation. The internet will also giggle at the terabytes of data transfers necessitated by this crucial change.
