[QUOTE="Doug b, post: 948326, member: 59143"] Dude, believe me. If I could, I would. But I don't have the time or talent for such an endeavor. It just irritates me that iTunes COULD be everything I need it to, but they just don't care enough to make it so. It's this proprietary way of handling things and the whole being 'different' thing IMO. Besides, something tells me that even if I did have the opportunity to do it, Apple would somehow see to it that the app never made it that far. I mean, why are there so many media players (and great ones too) for Windows, and only ONE somewhat sufficient one for OS X ? I say sufficient because to me, iTunes isn't fully functional in the same way that other media players are. If Songbird fixed that caching issue, it would be the end of iTunes for I suspect, more than just me. All other media players for OS X (the 2 or 3 which exist) are pure garbage. Cog was the closest after Songbird, but fell short in many ways by a long shot. VLC can play stuff, sure... but that's it on the short term. Really kind of weird if you asked me. I just can't believe that I'm the only person out of millions who feels this way. Am I trapped in the Matrix or something ? (god if the answer was only so simple ! ) Doug [/QUOTE]
