Rose-tinted spectacles or the most perfectly configured computer in the world, one or the other. On Windows, it is likely the least stable application known to man. On a PowerPC Macintosh, it can sometimes do the pizza-wheel-of-death when CHANGING TRACKS (thats locking up). Its got the worlds...

For you, yes. I'm not sure how you can 'like' a programme that randomly locks up or just crashes. That said, if you're on a Mac, Safari has you well trained in randomly locking up for a few minutes then recovering.

If bought - burn to CD, and re-rip If 'rented' - loopback soundcard recording. This is utterly NASTY to do. sometimes this can be easy-ish - some sound card drivers have a loopback input on the mixer and you just use something free like Audacity to record back. Otherwise you'll need slightly...

Ah, but so have most of us so I'm not quite ready to start flinging that one out :p

As compared to upgrading to the Windows version of iTunes 5.0 and being unable to access the internet until it was removed, as happened to about 30% of all users?

Hrm, that just sounds like a fuckup in the app, then. Not good. Have you tried reinstalling the version you're using now? I don't think they've added random pointless borders for no reason. Woodchip - you don't know me outside of NSC, at all. So shut up.

You went from 2.x or 3.x to 5.x I'd guess? Theres a mode to set 5.x to look like 2.x and the skins work again. 3.x ones don't as 3.x was a f***ing Bad Idea on Nullsofts part and thats why they dropped it and went back to 2.x.

Precisely Unless you're on a Macintosh, in which case you should be using VLC. iTunes is a steaming pile of shite, and its Windows port is unusably bad. Its better on the Mac but VLC is still better than it.

Yeah, they'll be fine. It doesn't protect music off CD. (Unlike Media Player, which does by default..) And yes, once the PSP has firmware 2.0 or higher, it'll play those files fine. And what Redland says is true, you can burn off bought iTunes music and rip it back, its a true pain in the arse...

Nearly all players can play AAC, however nothing but iTunes can play -protected- AAC files that you bought off the iTunes Music Store. Winamp can definately handle them, as can Realplayer (spit). And yes, even iTunes will convert unprotected AAC to mp3 - select the files, you want to convert...
