If you're getting tired of your current media player, Apple's iTunes is the
answer.
ITunes is one of the best media players on the market. Its vast music store
now gives holders of the video iPod the opportunity to
preview and download music videos, TV programmes and songs at very reasonable
prices.
This, and the ability to create your own digital library, makes iTunes a
great choice for anyone who is tired of needing multiple players.
ITunes will look for any other copies running across a network and you can
then listen to other people's music. An internet radio option is available for
broadband users.
Video support comes in the form of an embedded QuickTime player which
supports all the video formats that QuickTime supports
(AVI, MPEG, Flash etc.).
Audio can be encoded in the Apple Lossless format, which lets you import
music into iTunes at half the original size with no loss of quality.
Podcast support is included so that you can subscribe to podcasts from within
iTunes and have them automatically synced to your iPod.
Version 6.0 features a number of improvements including a better interface,
the ability to sync to the new iTunes phone, parental
controls, and the ability to sync Outlook and Outlook Express contacts and
calendars to an iPod
