  4. Wal-Mart Launches $0.88 Download Service by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0, Offtopic
    In other news, Wal-Mart has begun testing of its new 88-cent-per-song online music service. The site will be formally launched in 2004.

    The songs will be in WMA (Windows Media audio) format, and according to Walmart.com spokeswoman Cynthia Lin, the site will abide by the same content format as found on CD racks in Wal-Mart stores, which don't sell music with content the company deems offensive. On the website, the company notes that some songs are flagged as "edited" to denote a song was recorded without offensive lyrics.

    Censored music. Yuck! Why don't they just let the listener decide what is and what isn't appropriate? Shesh!

  7. Where is sort by path anf filename? by AbRASiON · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I realise that itunes is designed for people using a mac file system - and I also realise iTunes can sort your data for you.

    It's also made primarily for people who use id3 tags (and thanks to itunes I'm working towards tagging all my stuff - it's a great player)

    BUT in the meantime how does one sort by path and file name? - it's a simple feature winamp has but it makes things so much easier - especially when dealing with files named 01 - song name.mp3 (then in ANOTHER directory) 01 - song name.mp3 - it just puts ALL of them up the top.

    Great program but needs some serious work.

    (hell I'll keep whining while I'm here)

    Where's the bloody maximise? - some of us Windows freaks LIKE full screen applications - I can't help it, it's habit and I find it always looks best - I use alt tab to swap anyhow - I want a FULLY maximised package.

    Here's some other questions.
    What if I format my machine - is there a way of backing up my "opinion" on each song? the database of how many times played, my rating for each song etc? (yes I realise it MAY be possible I'm just pointing this out)

    Also if I move my data on my machine to another location I'd love to be able to re-point itunes to the new data without having to lose it all and re-work all the stats / ratings

    Itunes HAS to write to the "my documents" directory - this is annoying - i can't specify another location.
