iTunes 8 is out. I love iTunes

I had my fucking 160g music drive all tagged up and shit with iTunes, so I backed up all the library files when i reinstalled windows. setup my profile exactly the same, same username and drive paths. itunes couldn't find my fucking music and rebuilt over my library file and shit. HAET ITUNEZ.

I repaired file permissions last saturday. OS X has a weird idea of repairing shit. I mean, if I have to repair a car, I rarely set it on fire. The bastard wiped my hard drive and fucked up my memory stick beyond repair.

Oh well, that's what you get for installing OS X on a PC laptop. Jobs got his revenge.

sounds like being iTunes n00bs combined with using windows is just a sucky thing, eh?

i've used iTunes for years now, and manage a 130GB library with it... over 2500 full length albums... i run disk permissions every day, just for shiggles and to keep things running smooth... and i have never experienced anything like what you have. yeah... you can't blame the product for the consequences of your misuse or lack of understanding how it works or failures of your operating system and/or hardware.

it is the best media managment software i've ever used. learn it... learn the key commands, learn the sorting options, learn the view options... once you do, you'll like it... no, love it. especially if you have a library of any size at all.

What he said :kickass:
 
wats with the gay compressor thingy on itunes? it really pisses me off! its forever ducking all over the place. i've looked through all the setting and always have all the enhancement shite turned off. but its still the same. i get it on every pc/mac i use

i personally hate the program
 
Uh... What happened to the import options under the advanced tab?
Fucking fuck if they killed that...
That would surprise me. I haven't upgraded yet. Anyone have more info on this?
It moved, it's under "Import Settings" on the General tab of the Preferences. I hate the fact that you still can't order (not buy but sort them) your albums by band, and then by year and not by album's first letter...

Im pretty sure you can, keep clicking the album column untill it says album by year.

I use mine like this, so it sorts the library first by artist, and then within each artist it orders the albums in the order they were released.

For grid view, you can do it from the View menu at the top, and there is a section for how to organize albums within an artist.

BANG haha
 
when you have the top browser frame open, how do you get rid of the Genre Column (so its just Artist and Albums)...I was able to do it easily in the last version of iTunes, but I can't figure it out in this one (I'm using a mac)
