Are we the only ones that care about this? [/b][/quote] Apparentley. I can't believe we're getting iTunes 6 already. You'd think they would just call the video capable version 5.1.

I was hoping for Family Guy, South Park, Simpsons, ect, but maybe they'll be added in the future.

This could mean that torrent files of tvshows/movies will be encoded in H.264. [/b][/quote] H.264 isnt widley supported and files are too big for distribution. I'd be suprised if the movie downloads on iTunes are H.264. I think it requires a G5 to play them, and considering how the G4 processor is still widley used in Macs, I don't see Apple using a format a good chunk of their customers couldnt even watch.
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/ Page says iTunes 5 but 6 downloads. I suggest getting it NOW before the server gets hammered. Right now, I'm pulling it down at 300 kb/sec. When iTunes 5 came out and I waited a bit to download, it took me over an hour to download on a college high speed connection. Direct links: iTunes 6 Mac iTunes 6 Windows
Yeah, it would be nice if they at least give torrents a try for their server troubles. Isn't it G5 required to play larger h.264 movies that were encoded in 1080p?
Todd, the verison of iTunes that came before 6 was 5.1. I'm buying myself one of these new iPods come Easter when I go to Boston and go to the Apple Store.
I was going to buy the U2 Ipod SE but now that these new Ipods came out I dont know what to do SOME ONE HELP ME. [EDIT] wait a second, I cant find the U2 Ipod on the website anymore did they stop selling it? YES IAM GETTING A BRAND NEW 60GB IPOD IN 10 DAYS
