OurTunes Music Sharing Hack For iTunes
Posted by Kent Pribbernow in "NEWS" @ 02:50 PM
"A Stanford University programmer has released new software that allows music to be swapped via Apple Computer's popular iTunes jukebox. Like an older piece of software called "MyTunes," student David Blackman's new "OurTunes" allows a person to browse complete iTunes libraries on other computers and download songs, either in MP3 or the AAC format preferred by Apple."
Just what Apple needs...more intrusions into its intellectual properties. Though this software doesn't allow music downloading over the internet, it does enable a group of users on a LAN or network to trade files. Like Schools and Universities perhaps?
I loved this comment by OurTunes creator David Blackman: "I'm a Linux guy. I expect my software to be extensible,". Ooh..I'm ever so impressed by your l33tne$$. :roll:
