Product Description:

iTunes is a free application for Mac and PC. It plays all your digital music and video. It syncs content to your iPod, iPhone, and Apple TV. And it's an entertainment superstore that stays open 24/7.

Forget rifling through stacks of CDs or flipping through channels. iTunes puts your entire music and video collection a mere click away, giving you an all-access pass to thousands of hours of digital entertainment. Browse. Organize. Play. All from your Mac or PC.

View your library by artist, album, episode, year, rating -- any way you want. Find what you're looking for with a quick search that reveals results as you type.

Turn CDs into digital music by importing them to iTunes. Organize your entire collection with custom playlists.

Shuffle songs to mix up your groove. Listen to music from other computers on your network. Play video using onscreen controls.

Since installing iTunes 9.0.2 on my 24" iMac, I have gotten a beachball each time I have attempted to sync my iPhone.

Went back to 9.01 - Version: 9.0.2, 11/5/2009 09:11PM PST

iTunes 9.02 freezes whenever I have my Nano mounted. Messed with it for a few days & got nowhere. Finally Time-Machined my way back to iTunes 9.01 and everything is fine again.

So... although iTunes 9.02 is no good for me Time Machine gets 5 stars.
