I think iTunes is better as a program for playing music and burning music. Napster may be better for buying music. I have no experience with their program as far as buying music.

if you are on Napster all you have to do is highlight the songs from your napster playlist and press Burn CD and it converts the files automatically and burns the CD..... If I can get any easier then I am ignorant to it

Well if you can't play Napster files in Winamp, I would think that's a definite disadvantage. Compatibility! Gotta look at compatibility!

(OK enough geek speak... I'm outtie like a belly button.)

So I downloaded iTunes last night. Very cool software. And I love the display for streaming. Just wish I could figure out if you can change the skin at all.

Edgil · 02-27-2004, 08:24 AM

winamp? winamp is crap...

you can play them in Windows Media Player or Napster has a built in player or you can burn to CD or portable instantaneously

there isnt even an endorsed portable player for iTunes and they had to give away free songs with pepsi to get people to sign up because they service is weak. One thing I also noticed when i tried iTunes was that they have barely any songs or at least not stuff i listen to. 9 times out of 10 Napster is going to have a song that no one else has... heh man whatever your loss not mine

Yeah but if you grab something in iTunes you can play it where ever. You don't need to listen to it in Media Player if you don't want to or don't have to buy a portable player of a specific brand if you like something different or better. You have the freedom to use whatever you want. Not that I need another player, this one rocks! But for portable I could play them on whatever mp3 player or mini disc player I wanted to use. Plus! I haven't tested it but I'd be willing to bet you can't play Microsoft .wma files on my linux box.

I did a search on Google and it looks like maybe iTunes skins are only for the Mac?

I'm not sure... take a look.
