We've finally got a deal signed. We've been working on it for about 6 months. It's big.

So this afternoon, we're loafing around. I just bought a couple bottles of champagne for the team, to go with the wine that Cmagic so kindly contributed.

Sorry you can't be here. Many of you have contributed immensely to our success.

Cheers.

Apple is announcing iTunes for Windows right about now. Coincidence?

I guess we'll know soon.

GrumpyNick · « **Reply #35 on:** October 16, 2003, 02:06:59 pm »

I've just seen the screenshot on the Apple iTunes website http://www.apple.com/itunes/. Looks very similar to MC 9.1 a few versions ago. Or am I wrong? Either way, many congratulations to Jim, Matt, John etc

Don't think Itunes and MC9.1 have anything in common although they look very similar! !

I am Still Thinking This Comment Was Strategically Placed Because JimH Knew Itunes For Windows Was To Be Released.

And Was A Joke on All.

Why Would jimH Say Something In Passing And Here It Is Days Later And No Update.

iTunes being RIPPED out of my system as I write this. Very unfriendly!

Needed to re-apply 2.1 firmware and re-initialize in order to get my friendy MC9 to function again. Sheesh!!

Here's to you MC9 - you've got it right!!

Or maybe, that you really need to go out, get an iPod, download iTunes, convert your music to AAC, get Cable/DirectTV and get a TiVo.

Your pocketbook won't be so happy.

dingobaby,

MC9 already plays very nicely with TiVo. No special agreement was required.

I can broadcast my entire MC9 Music and Image library to my TiVo (& quality sound system

) through TV via my home network.

So, iPod at work, TiVo at home...all organized and enabled by MC9!!
