iTunes 4.7 is out !

looks like you can see the album art with the new iPods :-

 

Ahh, that'll be the feature that would convince me to swap my Gen3 iPod for a new one...errr...not

iTunes Music Store has opened in Portugal - yippee!! €0.99 a song which is only slightly more expensive than the 99c a song in the US and alot cheaper than the 79p a song in the UK

I might actually end up using it but if there are things I like I'll always end up buying the CD anyway.

OK, I gave it a spin and bought Caetano Veloso's latest album "A Foreign Sound" (it's him doing covers of many (non-Brazilian) standards and some less likely things like Nirvana's "Come As You Are" )

Just listening to it on my PC (through a proper amp and speakers) and it's actually sounding pretty good. Without the uncompressed version to compare it against 128kbps AAC is sounding remarkably good . I'm going to burn it to CD and then buy the real CD and compare them...should be interesting

btw, this album was a steal as it was only €9.99 (the standard album price it would seem) even though it has 23 tracks which would cost €0.99 if bought individually.
