With the advent of 7Digital now providing DRM free music in 320kbit/sec mp3’s (See this article for full details) from all 4 major labels, I’m confused about the iTunes offering in AAC.

You see, I like iTunes plus music, ie the no-usage limits, no DRM music in iTunes, and prefer this to buying a CD….however its not always available.

I’ve been using the PicardTagger the last week and thought I would post up a quick post of appreciation.

I have over 6000 mp3’s - all from a sizable CD collection.

Well, I’ve finally started use of Itunes, in advance of migrating to an iPhone next month (I have decided it will be a Iphone 3g that I get on contract renewal, which coinincides within 5 days of the iPhone launch.

I need help - my old circa 1990 CD player has packed up - which was a portable ghetto blaster style unit which had reasonable sound, was battery powerable for taking into the deeper regions of the garden where I have no power (nor a lead long enough).

I have many other things that can play CD’s, including my TV.
