iPodweek and Forums: iPhone, iTunes Plus, Worn-out Logos
It’s Friday, which means two things at iLounge: our weekly newsletter iPodweek is coming later today, and it’s time for a roundup of what’s happening in our forums. To sign up for iPodweek, use the simple submission form here:

New in the iLounge Discussion Forums this week: readers in the iPhone Forum have started their own mini-poll: Are you going to buy the new iPhone? So far, more than 2/3 of responses said “yes,” but at least half of the “yes” votes are waiting on price drops. Add your vote to the thread, which is also generating interesting discussions, but bear in mind—you may just ‘think different’ about price when you actually try iPhone yourself.
In our iTunes Store Forum, readers are actively discussing iTunes Plus downloads, including upgrading on a whole library or song-by-song basis, DRM-free benefits of iTunes Plus, network errors, and name/email address tagging. If you have an opinion on iTunes Plus, the iTunes Store Forum might be the right place to express it.
Finally, in our iPod shuffle Forum, readers are discussing how their iPod shuffle rear logo art is coming off, either through smudges, lines, or worse. Is there finally a reason to justify a case for the lowest-end iPod?

My iTunes library seems to be corrupted by a strange sound (not unlike a horse flapping it lips) when I play music from the library/playlists through my computer. Can anyone advise me as to the cause/cure for this problem.
Thanks

Please please please can someone help?? This is driving me crazy!!!
I have downloaded 3 audio books into iTunes and they are showing as purchased but i cannot get these on to my iPod. I have de-authorised and the authorised my account. I have restored my iPod but nothing seems to work.
I have tried to de-authorize audible and authorize again but I keep getting an error message as I assumed this was my iTunes password and username but obviously not!. Should I create an Audible account and if so, do I need to pay for it again?
Any help would be greatly appreciated before I either cry with frustration or just throw my iPod away!!!
Thanks in advance
