I thought that it required a G3!! iTunes requires a PPC Mac running at least System 9, although there is a hack out there to run it under 8.x I'm tempted to turn my 7500 into a jukebox, with its RCA audio in/out. Unfortunately, drive space is the limiting factor -- SCSI drives are expensive, and so are PCI IDE controller cards for the Mac. I thought of using an older Mac with IDE as a file server, but it starts to get silly, having all those old computers sucking electricity, just so I don't have to take a CD out of a case... I think the perfect MP3 jukebox would be an older PPC Powerbook upgraded to a 10 gig drive or so. It would be very energy efficient, and any the little space it would take up next to the stereo, it would compensate by looking very cool. The perfect use for a greyscale PB5300!
