[QUOTE="musicLover68, post: 1336044, member: 222121"] [b]iTunes distorted playback/ripping[/b] Hi blogmywiki. Glad I'm not alone in this mysterious problem. The thing is I use iTunes any time I am on my iMac as a player, gradually archiving all my CDs on it. I'm at 10,000 tracks now and then this problem has cropped up. I have Parallels 6 with Windows XP running sometimes. I wonder if this or some other application has caused memory corruption of some OSX component that acts as interface between the optical drive and iTunes? Yesterday I tried playing a CD using Quicktime and it worked fine. I also updated to a new (latest) iTunes version hoping that would cure the problem but no. I think the problem is not with either the optical drive or iTunes but with some part of OSX which the two use to communicate. I think that something has got corrupted and the encoder or whatever it is has been corrupted. Does anyone know of any OSX component that is used only by iTunes for getting the info from an optical disk?
