With the release of iTunes 7, Apple made it very clear that its music management application was now a full-fledged multimedia manager. It now manages movies and TV shows with the same style that itis been handling music for some time. Along with that movie support, iTunes 7 now sports a familiar, yet different, interface.
As iTunes has evolved from a simple music jukebox application into a multimedia manager and computer-to-iPod interface, the database that stores all of your favorite songs has evolved, too. iTunes 7 is no different, and it updates your music database to a new format. The moral of this story: Although I had no problems converting my music database to the iTunes 7 format, your mileage may vary. Be sure to backup your music library – just in case.
The new, yet familiar, iTunes interface. |
