For all of us that took advantage of the great refurb iPod deal, iTunes for Windows is out. I've never used the Mac version, but I'm pretty excited to check it out when I get home.

I use iTunes both on my Windows machine and my Apple, but if you don't have ID3 tags, the program is a nightmare.

It's slugish... There's a noticable delay when moving around iTunes. I don't think I'd use this for eveyday music playing right now.
Also, it looks like it refreshed my iPod's database which screwed it up a little. I was using ephPod before this, so that maybe that was it. I may have to re-upload 30GB...
BTW, don't forget to pickup the new firmware...

OK, I asked this in the OT thread, maybe some of you know:
I have an Apple formatted iPod I've been using with Ephpod with Macopener on Windows. Now that this is out, I want to use iTunes. So can I convert an HFS+ formatted iPod to FAT32? Is this something built into iTunes, or am I going to have to use some utility? I wonder if I could just keep macopener installed and use it in Windows with iTunes and keep it HFS+ format?

You have to make sure you don't let iTunes organize the files. It's a checkbox in the Preferences.Ugh...itunes converted my music folder...so now all my songs are orgranized by 1) a folder with the artist name then 2) unknown album then finally 3) the songs by that artist...
Exactly, WMP9 is a far too disorganized and ugly.Seems to me like it doesn't really have much advantage over Windows Media Player 9, but its interface is a bit more organized and has less crap.
