Apple releases iTunes 6.0

Well, that was snappy. It took 'em freaking forever to make the jump from 4 to 5, but it took 'em only about a month to go from 5 to 6. iTunes 6.0 features video playback,
however, and a slew of new features in the Store. On the audio end now you can gift music (i.e. buy it for your friends by album, song, or playlist), add customer reviews (uh oh, here we go...), and they've added Just for You—their name for personalized automated recommendations (it's in beta, aight?).

On the video side they're launching with 2,000 QVGA formatted FairPlay DRMed music videos which you can pick up for
$1.99 apiece, as well as episodes of five ABC series (Lost, Desperate Housewives, Night Stalker, That's So Raven, The Suite Life), also two bucks a go.
