I am using an Airport Express (802.11n 5Ghz mode) with optical adapter and it sounds great. Also, I am only using iTunes 9 with Snow Leopard 10.6.1, but so far I haven't experienced any issues.

Before, it would conveniently switch between the mini-player and the normal player. Now it expands the window to not-even fullscreen, and you're resorted to using a menu item or holding option while pressing the green button, and I only found out about THAT shortcut after googling to see if others shared my rage.

I am disappoint.]]>Sep 14th 2009 2:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/Sep 14th 2009 2:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/Sep 14th 2009 2:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/
You could always become a fan of keyboard shortcuts and use Command-Shift-M...]]>Sep 14th 2009 2:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/Sep 14th 2009 2:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/
Whether or not it's a consistency thing, for this particular application it didn't make sense. It has been like this for YEARS. And I'm a designer, so I use shortcuts constantly, but hitting a three-key combo (and an awkward one at that, but maybe because I'm left-handed) compared to one click is just plain annoying. Learn to not assume so much just for the pure satisfaction of bashing someone.]]>Sep 14th 2009 2:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/

Yeah, I see your point, guess I'm just really sensitive today... ;) Just used to reading things on here with a sarcastic voice in my head.]]>Sep 14th 2009 2:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/
You're forgiven. Just this once. :) I don't make a habit of bashing people. That's not nice.

Anyway I'm one of those fools on the other side of the fence who got irritated because my Mac OS muscle memory kept trying to max iTunes real estate and I'd get the mini player instead. The other 95% of iTunes users are irritated because they've been used to the old way for so long. If it was made consistent from the get-go there'd be no complaints.

I'll agree with you on the keyboard shortcut however. Whether you're left- or right-handed, the combination is a little awkward without using two hands.

(Hmm, I better call out "That's what she said" before someone else does.)]]>Sep 14th 2009 2:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/
I'm GLAD for this change. I never, ever use the mini player. I just discovered like a week ago you can option-click the maximize button to get it to actually maximize, then iTunes 9 came out and fixed it for me.

You can still get your mini player with option-click... or the mini player shortcut!

I never understood why iTunes was allowed to behave differently. The maximize button SHOULD ALWAYS MAXIMIZE THE WINDOW, not unexpectedly turn the player into some gimpy little mini thing.]]>Sep 14th 2009 4:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/Sep 14th 2009 2:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/Sep 14th 2009 2:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/
btw, iTunes 9 is working perfectly these first few days for me - no crashing, it's FAST, and yes I do like the interface tweaks (for the most part). I am running a mid 09 mbp + SL so that might have something to do with it. ]]>Sep 14th 2009 2:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/Sep 14th 2009 2:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/Sep 14th 2009 2:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/No wonder...]]>Sep 14th 2009 2:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/Sep 14th 2009 2:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/Sep 14th 2009 2:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/Sep 14th 2009 2:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/Sep 14th 2009 2:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/Sep 14th 2009 2:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/14/itunes-9-breaking-airtunes-connections/
