Vintage ad scanned and Flickr’d by James Vaughan . Wouldn’t it be nifty if the newest iteration of iTunes , which in my opinion is one of a great company’s poorest products, looked like this? The Ping-less iTunes 11 is set to launch this month, likely today, according to hints dropped in this Wall Street Journal profile of Apple exec Eddy Cue. It’s not that big a secret, anyways; the Apple.com iTunes splash page says it’s “coming in November,” and there aren’t many days left in November. Below, *actual* screenshots of the new interface. Come to think of it, the new UI resembles the vintage ad more than iTunes 10 does! But I don’t like it. I wish iTunes were a skinnable, interpret-able service with an API, like Twitter is (for now, anyway)—imagine if you could use any third-party client you wanted to access the service, as cleanly and free of cruft as you please.
