Version 4.9 incorporates several new features, most notable of which is podcasting. The front page and iTunes webpages have not been updated yet, but you can get your greedy little hands on it or through the new podcasting link in the music store! !"

    a) where did iPod have ANYTHING to do with this question other than that people call it podcasting cause 80% of the players out there are iPods.

    b) Who are you to say its a whiny kid. Most podcasts are made by major figures who instead of or along with using radio, also put out a mp3 file of their show. Two of the podcasts I recently heard where actually director commentary for Battlestar, and Enterprise, I certainly thing a director of a show would have some authorrity on something.

    A pure troll plain and simple and should be modded as such.

  2. So, what did Apple remove this time? by bogie · · Score: 0, Troll

    Unless you've been hiding under a rock you would know that with every release Apple tightens down Itunes and makes it less and less useable by taking away features and stripping away ways access to your own music. You know, things like reducing the number of times you can burn a playlist, taking away internet sharing, and then taking away unlimited Lan sharing. Now its what? 5 lousy users a day that can connect to your shared music? I'm just waiting for Apple to remove sharing and cd burning all together. If you think that isn't their long term goal your kidding yourself.

    Seriously WTF? Would any other company be able to get away removing features release after release in an attempt to control what you can do with YOUR music? My guess is no.
