So tempted to curse out loud...

Pros: Well, it's got tabs now... it's got antiphishing...

Cons: The interface is all messed up. The toolbar is gone, no file, no edit, no view... You can no longer move the toolbars around like you like it. I think that microsoft merely capitulated to the demands of the people rather than making a unique microsoft product.

I did curse out loud, actually, when I saw the new interface. I like to customize. I don't like the setup on this.

iTrash!

Pros: It's still iTunes, so you can still get iTunes tracks...

Cons: When you first click on the link in the iTunes store for iTunes plus, it takes you to a new page where you can download the new DRM free tracks. But when you click on an a song or album, a popup appears that says:

"Do You Want to Set Your iTunes Plus Preference?

By selecting iTunes Plus below, you will always see the iTunes Plus version of an album or music video whenvever one is available. You can change this preference by going to your iTunes Store Account page at any time."

Ok, so I tell it no... And nothing happens. It doesn't let me look at the album or track I selected. Ok, so I think "just say yes then go back and reset the preference back to show normal tracks whenever one is available", since I'd rather surf through the DRM free stuff on a page all it's own, but when you do that, the next time you go to iTunes Plus and click on an album or song, again iTunes demands you set your preference to iTunes plus! I gotta say, I'd rather not have this setting set like this because I don't ever want to get something I didn't want. What if I purchase music thinking I'm getting DRM free tracks when it's actually the old crappy-AaScSc tracks? No, it's better to have the DRM free stuff be it's own store or section to prevent confusion.

never got to use it

Pros: None. It never installed properly. The installer froze somewhere near the end of the install.

Cons: As you install it, you see a long list of files that are being modified. Watching the list makes you worry. It's not worth it. Not for any reason.
