2.6 GB is a RIDICULOUS amount of RAM to use for a music player.
I’ll stick with my Zune

I managed after an hour or two to chew up 1.3 gb of ram with iTunes taking up a solid 700 MB of that. It seems to start up with about 100 to 200 MB of ram and it steadily and unknowingly works its way higher and higher. Granted my computer is a little more than a year old, and its a PC. Running on a Pentium D 840, and 1.5 GB of ram. Also am running on Vista, and that takes up its own serious chunk of ram, but the only saving grace is that neat flash drive swap file speed boost. That truly keeps things from freezing up.

everytime the song changes or the song has a long pause i think the upgrade was a bad idea simpler is better in this case as for you people that have cruel remarks nice to have money to run your computor fast or not enough music to feel this i have 60 Gb of music and i woudnt want to erase any of it just so my comp runs good

It worked for me ;)

I love the new coverflow feature but when it actually slows my computer down to a point where I am unable to work the feature becomes more of a hindrance than something that adds to my overall user experience. Apple should never have released this software knowing that a large amount of the installed user base would blindly upgrade as they, like myself, trust Apple to only release quality, working products.

Just for the record my machine is a macbook 2Ghz core duo with 2Gb of RAM and it is almost unuseable with iTunes 7 plus a few other apps open.

I am sitting on 4 gigs of ram, a raid 0 set up with some of the latest bells and whistles for hardware (

Even Photoshop doesn’t take that much RAM.

So please there is art in designing cool on software. And Apple in the past has shown exemplary skill in doing just that. Apple, you need to redo iTunes 7.
