Apple updates iTunes to version 7.0.2
Posted by Helper Monkey
Apple today updated its most widely bashed application to date, iTunes 7. According to software update, iTunes 7.0.2 “…adds support for the Second Generation iPod shuffle and addresses a variety of stability and performance issues found in iTunes 7 and 7.0.1.�
Apple has received strong criticism from many who were not happy with iTunes 7’s interface “enhancements�, sluggish performance, and numerous bugs. The update does not change the interface, however it must do SOMETHING important, as it updates your entire library after the install. We’ll let you know if we find it to be any more responsive.
The update can be downloaded via Software Update or by clicking here.

What is frustrating is that Apple removed some elements of the previous interface, such as the Visualization icon which was on the main panel. Now I have another stupid key combination to remember to switch visualizations on and off. It wouldn’t hurt to have the icon back as an Option… it is not rocket science to do it…
