Controlling iTunes with Perl

Posted by pudge on from the stupid-perl-tricks dept.

EccentricAnomaly writes "brian d foy has created perl modules for controlling iTunes. His modules, Mac::iTunes and Apache::iTunes, can be found on the CPAN. Now perl mongers can run iTunes remotely via the command line or via a web interface on a Mac hooked-up to a nice stereo to use as a home or office jukebox. I shudder to think what else may be possible now that iTunes is in perl's clutches."

    I don't care about my karma. It's a completely stupid and arbitrary system. I can't redeem it for any neat prizes, so who cares. Whether or not these people respect me is irrelevant, since many of them are morons. There are a few excellent posts, but a lot of misguided zealots arguing points based on "religion" rather than utility or some other quantifiable benefit. But thanks for noticing that anyone who speaks out against Apple for any reason whatsoever is modded a "troll" without exception. These people really have no clue.

    Uhhh, sorry about the AC comments. Some AC's are alright.
