iTunes 7.1 — Now with full-screen coverflow!
A few months ago I wrote an article about a not-so-spectacular release of iTunes 7.0. The main problems were with the way it presented coverflow on a Windows XP machine with an atypical video card and the gapless-playback feature that locked up hard drives while processing large libraries. Apple released some .0x patches and since then iTunes has been stable.
Today I updated to version 7.1 and I am impressed. Full-screen coverflow is ridiculously cool. It’s not really that helpful of a feature but to see your album covers flowing passed you in massive, full-color, liquidy reflective goodness is a treat to behold. So, thank you, Apple, for working to make iTunes even more enjoyable. (Now if they just get that whole DRM issue worked out… )
