New iTunes Is Lame

[ #30976 ]

Apparently, Steve Jobs &co. think that people don't listen to music via podcast, because there's no way to get podcast episodes into the music library.

Totally lame. All the other stuff they added is useless to me, so now I need to find a way to downgrade, because this is just totally and completely stupid. I like to put my music on shuffle, and I can't, because iTunes is now retarded. I suppose I could make a new playlist, but that's stupid too: either it eats CPU keeping it updated, or it is a static playlist I have to update by hand (or cronjob).

  • I like to put my music on shuffle, and I can't...

    You can't? In iTunes 7? Presumably I'm missing your point because it seems to, you know, work fine for me :-)

      I can't just click Library and put it on Shuffle, because not all of my music is in there anymore, because it is now only under "Podcasts," because Apple thinks my podcast episodes cannot be songs I'd want in my music library.
  • Just curious, are you currently using a cronjob to update your itunes database?

    I hadn't heard of anyone doing that. I suppose with w/ an iTunes glue it'd be fairly easy.
