The good:  Apple iTunes 7 shines with a refined but still-intuitive interface; fabulous and useful Cover Flow album view adds dimension to music; iTunes Store now features movies and games; movie pricing is consistent and competitive; supports gapless audio playback; can find missing album art; has new features such as Download Manager.

The bad: iTunes 7, along with Cover Flow, is more processor-intensive than version 6; underdeveloped Radio section; no built-in recording features; movies have a resolution of only 640×480; most major studio films not available; can’t burn to watchable DVD; some bugs reported by users; album art retrieval feature needs work.

The bottom line: Apple iTunes 7 is a required upgrade for movie buyers and new iPod owners. Its refined interface, particularly Cover Flow, and useful new features trump the fact that the application is processor intensive.
