iTunes 8 for Leopard????
I was not sure if this goes under Os or this so i put it here. What improvments and differences do you think there will be IF they release iTunes 8 with leopard. Do you think it will have visual effects on the mac version. or maybe both pc and mac versions. What new things can you see.

Or I guess it could be on your desktop...
no dock, windows, sorry
im sorry to hear that, my sympathies
anyways, why cant there be a new iTunes in leopard? it couldn't it use core animation for coverflow?
iTunes 7 came out too recently.
Although I don't expect it, there's is precedent in iTunes 6 came out a month after iTunes 5.

I've been working a mockup of what i'd like to see in iTunes 8. I'm looking for feedback, its already becoming an evolutionary process. Check out the existing mockup screenshots here.

That cube looks cool in the second screenshot from Part II. I don't like the rest of the design, the buttons and icons, etc.
Part III looks pretty cool. Buttons look a lot better.

There may not be a iTunes 8, but there is a new release of iTunes due soon: http://www.appleinsider.com/article.php?id=2468. So yea.

Its wonderful, but that would take LOADS of system resources for Windows, and possibly for Mac, too (Leopard will have Core Animation, so who knows). But we will see what they come up with

it looks cool but it's too much of a dramatic change to be realistic, the itunes slowly evolves, this from 7-8 would be way too much of a design jump and wouldn't match the rest of the OS. It is cool though.
.. which leads me onto answering ecking - i take your point, its valid and perhaps this isn't iTunes 8 but iTunes 9 or 10.
As for Microsoft Vista, if it can handle 3D tab browsing (not sure if that is the correct terminology) without hitting performance bottlenecks then it should be able to handle a 3D cube.
Vista IS a performance bottleneck! Also, not to diss your design or ideas, but take a good look at Apple design principles. Apple are big on standards, even in new concepts and although I like your cube idea, I would see Apple implementing something more along the lines of the flip / ripple effects as found in Dashboard and on the iPhone.

Firstly please feel free to diss the design as much as you like, i'm looking for critical feedback. Secondly unfortunately for me i am waiting for leopard before buying my first Mac (don't want to pay for the upgrade if its potentially coming out in a few months), therefore i have not seen the flip / ripple effects you talk about, but once apple release the release date of leopard, i start the count down.

That was so weird, never understood that.

Also, I don't think the UI for iTunes will change soon at all. Mac OS X is JUST barely catching up to it.

WHAT??
That article was from Feb 2007, and by the "next version of iTunes" they were talking about a mini update for performance and stability.

...Look at the date on that post. It's from February. This is an old thread, all speculation of a new version of iTunes in this thread doesn't mean anything now.
