    Default New iTunes released today

    So far, liking the new look, but especially liking how much more responsive it is on Windows. It added albums almost as fast as Foobar and Traktor, and editing tags is also very quick!

    I especially like the new bar across the top that shows recent album additions. That feature alone is going to save me a ton of time!

    I'm going to keep digging, but I'm really liking what I see so far!

    Yep, its a great update. Runs super smooth and fast.

    I cant stand all the white space though. Its far too bright when switching between itunes and traktor in a dark dj booth.

    search has always worked if your metadata is correct. Its just been a lot less snappier than it is now.

    in my case "less snappier" was an understatement. also, i'm glad itunes doesn't decide to magically start up by itself after shutting down like it used to

    Have never seen that problem, and Ive been using Itunes since V7.

    The snappyness was a direct function of how clean your metadata was, but even then it wasnt anywhere near 'snappy'

    For a brief time, iTunes had a black background. Then they changed it to white, but people complained, so they updated it with an option to change it to black or white.

    That option has been gone for a long time now, and I guess they will never be bringing it back, but I agree...iTunes is too white.

    Try switching between Traktor and Itunes 12.

    Itunes is like staring into the sun after looking at Traktor for a while. Flux helps a bit.
