Ok, the latest release of iTunes seems to have fixed some of the performance issues with v7 I blogged about recently. Skipping is greatly reduced, but the whole app still seems bloated and memory dependent. Maybe they should take a leaf out of Nullsoft‘s book and release ‘lite’ versions of the player…
If you haven’t let iTunes auto-update, I recommend you do so. Unless you’re using version 6, in which case, stick with that for the moment…!
