“Apple Computer plans on Wednesday to release an updated version of its iTunes program intended to fix bugs encountered by some Windows users.
The company is in the process of posting to its Web site version 4.1.1 of iTunes, which aims to remedy some initial glitches with the jukebox software that Apple released last week. As previously reported, some Windows users were reporting bugs with the software, including a problem that caused some Windows 2000 Professional machines to freeze after installing iTunes.
“A few customers reported conflicts with specific PC configurations and we quickly updated the iTunes software in response,” Apple said in a statement. “iTunes 4.1.1 addresses an isolated incompatibility with Windows 2000 and older third-party CD burning software, as well as problems caused by corrupt MP3 files on some users’ PCs.”“

The “Greatest Windows App Ever” is even better now with some of the initial bugs fixed. Right, Mr Jobs?

“Customers who download iTunes from Apple’s site will now get the updated version. By tomorrow, those who check for iTunes updates from within the program’s “Help” menu will be directed to the 4.1.1 update. Over the next week, Apple plans to send a notification of the update to all Internet-connected users of iTunes for Windows. ”

Proves that they rushed it out tho, an update only a week after release, dodgy.
I’m still going to wait a while before trying iTunes again, my ipod is still awaiting repair by apple after iTunes broke it…

Hopefully, this version, at the very least, will actually play my CD’s. It needs to be able to master that first (the simple things), before doing all the other stuff.
