iTunes 10 - Going Social
As part of the Apple music event held earlier this morning, Steve Jobs released the latest iTunes version, iTunes is now at version 10.
What is iTunes?
---------------
iTunes is the "Jukebox" which Apple has created as a bundle with their famous iPods/iPhone and iPad. iTunes can keep all your music, videos, apps and podcasts organized in one centralized application. You can also do a variety of things with iTunes, like download music to phone (iPhone only), rip music from CDs and burn CDs from you existing music collection. Once you connect your iPod/iPhone or iPad to your computer with iTunes installed, you can set iTunes to automatically sync your media with your device.
What's new in iTunes 10
-----------------------
iTunes Ping - Ping is the social element added in this version of iTunes. Through Ping, you will be able to follow your favorite artists and friends, you will get to know what are their favorite songs or playlists.
TV show rentals (Not available in the Philippines yet) - in the States, you can now rent TV shows at 99 cents per episode (about P44). Some say this is expensive since some competing services will let you purchase the episode for the same price.
Air Play - basically a wi-fi technology which will enable you to play your favorite songs across the range of your wi-fi. This will be integrated in new speakers, amplifiers and iPod accessories.
