When Apple sent iPod shuffle, it promised an update of iTunes with the extension of of the Genius functionality towards the videos like episodes of series and films stored in the library of the application.

Nevertheless, with the exit of iTunes 8,1, the engaged characteristic did not appear, for unknown reasons. Until today, when in the bar of Genius of some iTunes has begun to appear recommendations of series and films, which test that the service has activated.

In this way, besides recomendarte songs of iTunes intelligent ready Store and crearte, now we will be able to receive recommendations and also to generate lists of series and films from any element of our library.

The only disadvantage of this approach is that all iPhones need to be in your Wi-Fi, which is annoying if you have an encrypted network. In addition, everyone must have the remote in your iPhone, but can easily download it directly from the iPhone App Store.

To configure iTunes DJ, you must first open iTunes on your Mac and click the Settings button under the iTunes playlist DJ. In the configuration, you must check the box to allow customers to request songs, and, optionally, type a welcome message. Also check the box for voting.

Now when you open the iPhone remotely, will happen in different ways depending on whether you have connected to your iTunes library. Linked iPhones are supposed to belong to the host, and therefore have the ability to play, pause, skip songs, and rearrange the playlist, as before.

If your iPhone is not tied to your iTunes library (ie you are a guest at the party), then you do not have quite as much control. You can see the playlist, but you can not directly change the order. However, you can vote for songs in the top of the list and request to add new songs to the end of the list. It works very well, because if everyone in the room had the ability to skip songs, there inevitably would be chaos.

You can also vote for the songs by right-clicking on them in iTunes and choosing “love” from the menu. You can do this as many times as you want to, you can only vote once hosted the iPhone. This allows the host to process the order, if they wish.

For many people, this is absolutely unnecessary. It is required that all his friends have iPhones, and I can not for the life of me imagine the kind of game where you connect to secure WiFi … but it is pure, however.

The service, which should again be called iTunes, iTunes allows users to extend their video collection wear more disk space. For now, it is unclear whether this service, which works with iTunes saying, so that the film television shopping, will be free.

One of the main complaints of users to buy video from iTunes is that they are forced to find a place to store files once you’ve finished to see, often access to ‘living space. Apple essentially a center of alternative media.

Repeat the iTunes service undoubtedly enhance the service and the usefulness of the Apple TV, which has little space on the hard disk of 160 GB as a whole. However, a major drawback is that high-definition video requires more bandwidth, for fear of video memory is full of problems.

If Apple continues to offer downloads of streaming video on demand and added, have a little leverage against competitors like Netflix Watch Instantly, and even boxing. Also allow users to unplug the box Apple TV to download and watch videos with them without an Internet connection.
