This thread is just about iTunes, not iTMS or iTunes Windows or iTunes and AOL or Pepsi.
So is the audio cutting out every now and then bug fixed? Audio skipping in 10.2.8 fixed? Are there any new bugs? I'm going to download it after a few other people do.

You could just select the update, and go to the update menu and click "Make Inactive." Poof! Gone... until you want to see it again.

It never went away.

I guess the obvious question here is if it is still local area sharing or if internet sharing is back.

The box to enter URLs of remote shares is POOF.

I was wondering about this as well. Any takers?

It'll download an updater app. I find it very unlikely that it'll even allow you to press the update button within the app.
I can sum up why I'm happy in three words, though.

The question is how do I find the IP of the people's shared libraries.
Connect to the person's library, and then go to the terminal and type netstat -p tcp
The line you want should look something like this:
"tcp4 0 0 your.ip.here.bignumber their.ip.here.3689 ESTABLISHED"
Heh.

You might like these then, too. These are two little shell scripts that I wrote to simplify checking up on iTunes and internet connections in general. Option click to download them, and then chmod them to be executable like this: chmod 755 filename.
The first one is called connections, and it makes a nicer form of netstat... really the only information I look for. You can use the flags:
"-n" to show numeric ip names
"in" to only show incoming connections
"out" to only show outgoing connections.
Grab it here: http://www.goshen.edu/~matthewjb/ai/connections
The second one only shows those people connected to iTunes, and then (sometimes) shows the songs they are playing. It uses the command lsof which sometimes is wrong. Take it as you will. It doesn't accept any flags. Grab it here: http://www.goshen.edu/~matthewjb/ai/whatmusic
CYA disclaimer: I have been messing with these for a while, and had to generalize some things to make it work in (hopefully) every situation. I hope it works for you, but I'm not too advanced in programming, and so I may not be able to fix it. Perhaps some others could perfect some things.
Edit: Darn Safari Caching issues. I didn't see Brad's post till now. Of course, some of my scripts do that, but if you don't want to use them, just add a -n flag to the netstat command, so it looks like this: netstat -np tcp
Does anybody have more info about the 'error correction while importing audio cds' feature, that has silently crept into iTunes. Have Apple engineers done the cool thing and included the lib Paranoia in iTunes? Or is there some other, lesser known (and lesser functional?) set of routines built in. Needless to say I'm interested. I've been using XCDRoast for months now, under X11, just to have paranoia ripping, but it's a bit of a hassle (what with killing and reviving the autodiskmount demon every time you launch the app. it always gets my system to the point where I have to reboot).
Not sure if it's a bug or feature. Curious.
