Find me first. Read me second.
Apple is infamous for releasing new versions of software and only making noise about the sexiest new features, or as in this weeks iTunes 4.6 revision, feature singular. Why does Apple insist on continuing to bury any clue as to what actually gets fixed in their releases? By throwing the old ‘… includes a number of other minor enhancements …’ blanket over everything but the headline act, I never know whether or not a particular release addresses any previous issues. The conspiracy theorist in me will debate that it probably has something to do with refusing to admit their mistakes, but I digress. Undeterred by this apparent oversight, I followed a link via Apple-X.net which pointed to an iTunes support document. The document specifically notes that upgrading to iTunes 4.6 fixes the problem with accessing large shared music libraries. An advanced search later, and I also discovered that 4.6 fixes issues with missing playlists and unexpected quitting when accessing streams. Hey Apple, how hard would it be to put those ‘other minor enhancements’ in the read me file?
