    I've read nothing but horror stories online this past week and am totally lost as to why nothing's messed up for me. No memory leaks (I left it running in the taskbar for 24 hours), no crashes, no problems with the gapless playback, my iPod works great with it, everything is fine.

    The only problem I had occured before installation when I found out you needed Service Pack 2 on XP to install it. That went off without a hitch and everything's been great since.

    computer - problems with crackling sound and memory leak (200,000+)
    laptop - perfectly fine

    The sound problem is associated with a certain sound card chip, I think...

    Yeah, I'm a laptop too. I get the crackling sound but only when the volume slider in iTunes isnt at 100. And that just happened for the first time today. The memory use stays about 60,000 ~10,000.

    Same, I only get crackling when my volume's not 100%. So you technically do have a problem with iTunes. ;)

    Yeah, I have it always set as 100% in iTunes and I just change my speaker's volume. *shrug*

    But it is a bug, nonetheless.

    Im not having a problem with it on either of my Macs and people were reporting its buggy.

    No sound problems, but then again, my Mac just sends raw PCM audio to my stereo receiver over an optical cable, so if there were a problem, it would lie in my stereo.

    I only use iTunes for putting stuff on my iPod, because I think it's a total piece of crap as a media player. But that's a different story.

    Nothing too major, couple of memory leaks, and that pain in the ass feature that tries to get gapless track information on every song on my ipod... I dont know if you can even turn that off... :/

    For my collection of music it took a few hours to determine gapless playback info. Your best bet is let it go overnight, you wont have to do it again until you import new music and then it will be much faster. I just got iTunes running on my PC, before it would have a memory error and wouldn't start.

    My iTunes works fine, but after I installed it I wanted to copy the numbers from "Collision Curse" from the CD to my iTunes library. And it copied it but it seems as though it has also deleted the numbers on the CD itself.
    Perhaps it's me that made a fault, but I believe that I did the same thing as I've always done in the previous iTunes versions.

    Very anoying...
