That's where the plugins are being developed. Download it.

(I haven't been able to test it though. Any one got any .ogg files Razz)

Sure.

*edit* Also, to any admin. A little more storage space would be appreciated. I had to delete some of my attachments to upload this. Smile

Thx.

Btw, iTunes has been updated. Mac users have already got it (if their system is up-to-date).

Windows users should manually download it. So far I've noticed that most of the performance bugs have been fixed.

Thanks Tony

I'd try it, but I don't really use any quicktime-based applications...

You guys make me feel strange for keeping my whole music collection in .ogg format.

My collections is in the form of mp3s and wma. I'd convert it all to one standard format... but there is no way it'd be worth it. 6500+ files require WAY too much time to convert to a single format. Especially since I'm always getting more.

Oh, that's 452:58:41 seconds of music Wink

Mircosoft has stopped support for the Windows Meda Player for Mac OS X. They recommend the Filp4Mac plugin instead, which is infact more up-to-date than M$'s own player (the mac version).

Download the plugin here: http://www.flip4mac.com/wmv_download.htm
(now you can play wma files in iTunes)
