if this thing is a genius, then so is your average used car salesman.

that is all.

Not even Steve Jobs can make you a genius, thrillhouse.

that is true but he should be able to sell me shit without me realizing that he is just trying to sell me shit.

but you are like really intuitive and stuff

What's a genius playlist?

it's a door to door salesman hiding in your itunes

if you turn off the sidebar, the playlist feature is actually pretty awesome

This is true...

I don't need someone to tell me that, if I'm playing something off of "The Game" by Queen, I might like to listen to something off of "Made in Heaven" by Queen.

That's just insulting to both of us, like suggesting you listen to something off of "No Talking Just Heads".

I just installed the new itunes and it crashes as soon as it opens. Every time.

But I get a glimpse of the new interface. Looks genius alright.

i just downloaded the new version and now i can't find any of my music

i mean, it's there but i was so used to the other way

For people unhappy with iTunes, Songbird is starting to become slightly awesome. http://getsongbird.com/

Significant features:
Firefox-like add-ons (It's built on Mozilla software)
You can browse music websites on it, and it'll create a playlist of all the songs available for download on the web page.
Tells you when artists in your library are touring and passing by your city.

here's a genius playlist from thrillhouse based on your stated preferences:

try random encounters with strange men in public restrooms.

Isn't that Catswilleatyou's new gig?

slag this if you must, but I just hit "start genius" off of Grand Puba's "I Like It (I wanna Be Where you Are)" and this mix is the boobs!

iTunes8----so genius is still has my iPod screwed up.

*The Theory... is bitter*

It won't put music on an iPod, will it? That is the single feature I am looking for right now in an iTunes replacement-- unfortunately, that also seems to be the one feature no one will touch with a ten-foot pole (at least on a mac).

just get it over with and name the band Wolfsnake Bird.

I use it to front my carwash company. it's all yours for 7% of sales.

It does manage the music on your iPod. I haven't tried doing that, yet, so I don't know if it works well or not.

They have a list documenting which iPods they support: http://wiki.songbirdnest.com/Docs/Devic ... ce_Support

Ahhh, thanks. I'll have to give that a try, then!
