I just downloaded the new iTunes finally. Does anyone know much about this new DJ feature? I went into it and it made me playlist, sort of like Genius would. The playlist made me laugh, though. it was a bunch of classical music and opera (yeah, you heard me) with AC/DC's "Big Balls" smack in the middle That's not exactly the best playlist for a party.
Won't update for awhile, what functionality does it have VS. Genius? Does it have to connect to iTunes servers to make your playlist like with genius?
I don't know about the it needing to connect to a server. It seems to randomly pick a song, then make a genious playlist from it. It allows people nearby to make recommendations with the iTunes remote from thier iPhone or iPod. That seems to be about it, I think.
Interesting, So can "Strangers" within the LAN can see what's in the library? And they can make requests just not actually control the player?... Sounds pretty cool for a party situation....
