Most annoying song, period.
Sorry, Bette Midler—Apple spellcheck even works on proper names.

Bette Miller—Wind Beneath my Wings—Hands Down!Also, that song Whitney Houston horked off Dolly Parton...Remember the Original rule...no one has a better version than the original...thinking Hank Williams, Leonard Cohen, Lennon/McCartney, Bob Dylan... 
Logitech Squeezebox album art issue
Thanks to user Sbleam for your suggestion. I did download that script from the Sonos site and got the artwork for about 30% of my albums. Since it's an iTunes script, I'd figured it'd work for my Squeezeboxes as well.However, it usually doesn't em... 
Nitty Gritty 1.5Fi vs. VPI HW16.5vs. Okki Nokki
Thanks for the response. Truly awesome system, BTW, one of the best I've seen on Audiogon. My system is - uh - a bit simpler - Naim, Rega, Spendor. I've been toying with the idea of moving away from the Brits (say, Maggie 1.7's, obviously with dif... 
Logitech Squeezebox vs. Sonos
Thanks again to the forum for all your opinions. Right now, though, no one system seems to have it all (hi-res support, easy-to-use GUI, true plug-n-play hardware compatibility, etc., etc.). So I'll wait this one out a bit more, and just keep ripp... 
iTunes Windows/Mac interoperability issue
One of the nice things about Audio MIDI Setup is that you can set sampling rates on the fly. I tried 16/44.1 (the default), then 16/48. To my surprise, 16/48 is better, and the difference is NOT subtle. 
iTunes Windows/Mac interoperability issue
Correction to my last post--Audio MIDI Setup lets me choose only between 16/44.1 (Red Book) and 16/48, not 24/48. Connected DAC (via USB) is a Musical Fidelity V-DAC, which, according to specs, upsamples to 24/192, so it's not a DAC issue. I selec... 
iTunes Windows/Mac interoperability issue
Thanks again for all your posts. Just two more ?'s for the forum, one slightly off-topic.First, in the "As We See It" article in August 2010 Stereophile, John Marks alludes to iTunes having 24/96 capability. I only see 24/48 (from Audio MIDI Setup... 
iTunes Windows/Mac interoperability issue
Thanks for y'all's interest and patience with my windy problem description. Talked to my Apple tech re this; he concurs that the root cause lies within iTunes for Windows. Also talked to two Geniuses, one of whom had actually encountered a similar... 
iTunes Windows/Mac interoperability issue
Howdy again; thanks for all the responses.Per Shadorne's post, I've been using the Mac as reference for some time now. I've figured that was the best way to go, since I can move the iBook from one stereo to the other. The Dell is in my home office...
