Apple Announces iTunes 8

Features Apple's New Breakthrough Genius Technology

SAN FRANCISCO-September 9, 2008-Apple today announced iTunes 8, the next major 
release of Apple's ubiquitous music and video player for Macs and PCs which is 
seamlessly integrated with the most popular online content store in the world 
(www.itunes.com). iTunes 8 includes the new breakthrough Genius feature, which 
lets you automatically create playlists from songs in your music library that 
go great together-with just one click. Genius helps music fans rediscover 
favorite songs in their existing music library and suggests related music on 
the iTunes Store they might want to add to their music collection. iTunes 8 
features new ways of viewing your music and video libraries, and adds 
television programs in stunning high definition for sale on the iTunes Store.

Using Apple's breakthrough Genius feature is easy-select any song, click the 
Genius button, and iTunes instantly creates a playlist of songs that go great 
together from your own library. You can preview the playlist Genius creates, 
refresh the list to choose different songs and save Genius playlists to enjoy 
again later. You can even create Genius Playlists on-the-go with the new iPod 
classic, iPod touch, iPod nano and iPhone. The Genius sidebar appears right in 
iTunes and recommends music from the iTunes Store that you don't already have, 
based on the songs you select.

When you turn on iTunes 8's new Genius feature, information about your music 
library is anonymously sent to the iTunes Store, where it is combined with the 
anonymously-gathered knowledge from millions of other iTunes users and 
processed through Apple-developed algorithms. The Genius results, specifically 
tailored to your personal music library, are sent back to your computer to 
enable users to automatically create Genius playlists in iTunes and on your 
iPods, even when they are not connected to the Internet.
