iTunes users, the new version is now faster and more responsive

March 12, 2009 in Apple, Media players | Permalink

With the launch of the new 3rd generation Apple Shuffle, yesterday morning, one of the important system specifications was the inclusion of Apple iTunes 8.1. The new version of media management application has been made available and you can download immediately. The biggest disappointment with the previous iTunes (8.0) was that it can be quite bloated, take a while to open and is less respsonsive than it should be, particularly for Windows users. There are times when we double-click on the iTunes icon on our desktop for it to open a minute later.

Apple iTunes 8.1 is now available and this is a fairly major upgrade. The application has received a speed boost, so it's more responsive than before. New features include support for the 3rd generation Shuffle, as well Genius support for your TV and movies, so you can find similar programmes on the iTunes Store.
