iTunes 9 introduced in Apple's Rock and Roll Event

10:09 AM PST - Steve has officially introduced the latest version of the iTunes software, the iTunes 9. 

Here are the new features presented about iTunes9:

Genius DJ - "Genius mixes is a Genius DJ playing songs from your library that it thinks will go well together. iTunes will make 12 by default, and all you have to do is click on one and it’ll start playing indefinitely."

Improved Syncing - "Next, improved syncing. When you want to sync, we can make it better. When you sync music now, you can say I want to sync a particular playlist, but you can also sync everything by Dylan, or everything in the rock genre."

App Management in iTunes - "The biggest thing we're doing is allowing you to manage your apps in iTunes. You can arrange your home screens and move apps around through iTunes. So long coming, so great to see."

Home Sharing - "we're going to let you copy songs, TV shows, etc. with up to 5 computers in your house. You're going to see all the computers you can share with, and you'll see the contents -- you'll be able to drag that and copy it to your library."

Redesigned Store - "New artist pages, new movie pages. It's a much cleaner layout."

iTunes LP - "LPs were great -- you got music, photography, liner notes, essays... most of that left us when we went to CDs. That shouldn't be the case. That's what we're doing with LP. You bought a great album in the past... you can get it again. Here's American Beauty by the Grateful Dead. A great record. There's all kinds of added content here, lyrics, photos, writing."
