CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: Jason Parker on September 21, 2009
Apple's iTunes is an all-in-one jukebox that lets you play music, movies, and podcasts, and also lets you connect to the iTunes Store to browse and buy additional content. iTunes has become the industry standard in media players, largely because of its connection to iPods and the iPhone, but has always been the strongest player for Mac. This latest version adds a number of new interface enhancements, as well as some new features to make managing your media and devices easier.
iTunes 9 comes with a number of feature enhancements mostly to improve upon the way you interact with iTunes, your devices, and the iTunes Store. The interface of the iTunes Store has been cleaned up for easier navigation, redesigned with a new layout and a new black tabbed-menu system across the top. These new tabs replace the old left-side navigation to choose between categories like music, apps, movies, and podcasts. Also new to the iTunes Store, Apple has added more content when you purchase entire albums--what they're referring to as "LPs." Now when you purchase a full album or LP, you can show songs with lyrics, explore bonus content, and check out extra content created by the musicians themselves. All of these features are available for movies as well including chapter selection, bonus content, and more.
The way you interact with apps on the iPhone and iPod Touch has also been improved. You can now interact with your home screen visually right inside the iTunes window, letting you drag to move apps where you want them before syncing to your device. You also now have the ability to selectively sync specific artists or playlists, or sync your photos by specific albums or faces.
Whether you're already among the converted or have yet to try this top-notch player, iTunes 9 offers a laundry list of useful features and should find a home on any media junkie's computer.
