I, tunable.

Stumbling about the web this evening, I found two extremely informative, and dare I suggest, useful sites relating to iTunes. Since I seem to spend an inordinate amount of any given workday listening to iTunes-provided audio content, anything even vaguely informative or useful in an iTunesy sort of way will grab my attention. I mention these sites here on the oft chance that they’ll grab a small part of your attention as well. Get on with it then. Jim Heid’s rather Jobsian-sounding Macintosh Digital Hub Site has been analyzing the snot out of the new features found in the freshly released iTunes 4.5. Mentioned are a few niceties that you probably wouldn’t have noticed at first glance. I particularly appreicted the mention of an AppleScript which toggles the function of the playlist link arrows so they point to your own library, rather than the iTunes Music Store. For a iTMS-challenged Canuck such as moi, this functionality now makes hayloads more sense than the default behaviour. And speaking of AppleScriptiness, they don’t come any better compiled than Doug’s AppleScripts for iTunes. My current favorites? Both Trash Duplicates and Import Selected iPod Tracks proved their worth within minutes of installation. If you spend even a fraction of your day using iTunes, you are bound to find a script here that will make your music listening experience even smilier.
