EXPLICIT?

OK, I have been "hearing" about songs (including a few I'd like to download) wrongfully labeled explicit on iTunes. According to Yahoo! Answers, a few people (probably teenagers) have been complaining stuff like "How is this song EXPLICIT?", and on a few of the responses, people have responded that on iTunes, every song on an album with a PA sticker on the front is automatically deemed EXPLICIT even if it is purely clean. Anyone here that would like to clarify this or talk a little bit about this? I certainly believe it's unfair! JustN5:12 01:06, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

If this belongs anywhere it is probably iTunes Store, not iTunes. Can you cite reliable sources (i.e. not forum postings) for this. See WP:ATT. AlistairMcMillan 03:22, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

RASPUTIN ????

Citation:
"introduced by Apple on January 10 by Apple lead developer Grigori Rasputin,in 2001 at Macworld Expo in San Francisco"
I think it is a joke. The link leads to article about famous russian mystic. I don't know who presented iTunes back in 2001. I am really suspicious it was person having such name. Someone who knows real name of the guy edit the article.

Yeah, I'm taking that out.--HereToHelp 14:55, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

Remind me why we took out the Pink Floyd slector?

Remember when we had a pic of a dude browsing through of all the iconic pink floyd album covers? Yeah...U guys got two days to add that back in, or that's it..I'LL DO IT MYSELF! 71.182.73.254 20:18, 19 June 2007 (UTC)

Bundleing with HP and Dell

Dell doesn't bundle iTunes with their computers, I think HP does though as they have previously made their branded iPods although I can't confirm it. iTunes is bundled with OS X on all Macs. That should be worded correctly in the line. 123.243.231.195 09:45, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, AFAIK Dell never bundled iTunes (their thing was a rebranded version of MusicMatch Jukebox), and HP did for a while, particularly while they were selling HP branded iPods, but don't seem to anymore. I don't have any firm sources for either, so I'll leave the edit to someone else. MacPrince 23:20, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

iTunes 7

Am I the only one whose iTunes skips during songs? I'll be listening to a song and it will skip as if it's a CD. I thought maybe it had something to do with the new CDs I loaded, but I don't know.71.126.232.135 20:38, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

CD Burner

When I try to burn a CD, I get a "thwap" noise randomly inserted into the songs, like what used to happen when you download a corrupt file from Kazaa or wherever. I assume this is some sort of copy protection...it doesn't happen on songs I bought from iTunes, or songs I took directly from another CD. Is there any way to fix this? Does this normally happen with iTunes? Adam Bishop 18:09, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Gee thanks, that's very helpful. Adam Bishop 02:10, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
Take it to someplace like iLounge if it's not about the article. MacPrince 23:06, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
This has nothing to do with the article! Stephen Shaw 17:21, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

I'm interested in the xml feeds from itunes, does any body know if this information is free to use for commercial reasons??. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.116.235.64 (talk) 17:58, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

iTunes U

I don't see the subject on iTunes U. Like, what is it exactly? I mean, shouldn't information about it be included here? --Esanchez(Talk 2 me or Sign here) 01:17, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

Windows versions

It seems that the current versions do not support win98. Did any previous versions support win98 or win98SE? -69.87.204.122 23:41, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

iTunes was released for Macs in 2001 and on Windows in 2003, so support for old versions of Windows is unlikely. 69.228.208.2 (talk) 00:08, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

iTunes + FLAC?

I think this is something that needs citation. Also, will this only work on a Mac? Or is it for Windows as well? In light of many people crying for "official" support of this format, I think there needs to be some sort of explication. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.192.118.32 (talk) 19:06, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

EDIT: Found a source: http://www.simplehelp.net/2007/09/20/how-to-play-flac-files-in-itunes/

Someone who knows how to use wikipedia, please put this into reference. Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.192.118.32 (talk) 19:32, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

Max

Exactly how many songs can iTunes hold? --MosheA (talk) 22:58, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

As far as I know, no limit is in place. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.192.118.32 (talk) 21:36, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

Your computer' memory's the limit —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.134.166.42 (talk • contribs) 19:07, December 1, 2007

Uhhhhhhh......

Is it just me, or does this article seem like it was authored by Apple specifically? I don't see any indications of neutrality...I know I'm not the only person on the planet who doesn't worship itunes. I can't cite myself as a source for criticism for obvious reasons...Does anyone know what sources would be acceptable online or elsewhere that would allow this article to have some balance? (Heaven forbid.)

iTunes Phones

I see the article is flagged as needing a citation. would this [1] count? 67.70.94.222 (talk) drw —Preceding comment was added at 10:58, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
