Apple Releases iTunes 8.2 and QuickTime 7.6.2

One week ahead of Worldwide Developer Conference 2009, Apple releases iTunes 8.2 and QuickTime 7.6.2.

iTunes 8.2 and QuickTime 7.6.2 are available for Mac OS X (Tiger and Leopard) and Windows (XP and Vista).

Early preview version of iTunes 8.2 was required to install iPhone OS 3.0 Beta 4 and Beta 5. Since then, no new iPhone OS 3.0 Beta has been released. It is estimated that iPhones OS 3.0 Beta 5 would expire sometimes late June 2009. That means a new build of iPhone OS 3.0 should be release in the near future. Possibly to coincide with WWDC 2009. The shipping version of iPhone OS 3.0 is expected to be released in mid-July along with the new iPhone hardware(s).

Dream Theater: Mike Portnoy Explains The Deluxe Box Set.

In the latest money grab scheme venture, Dream Theater and Roadrunner Records are releasing a special “Black Clouds & Silver Linings” Deluxe Collector’s Edition Box Set.

Mike Portnoy explains why hardcore Dream Theater fans (suckers) should spend their hard-earned money on the box set. Watch the video here.

The box set includes the “Black Clouds & Silver Linings”3-Disc Limited Edition, Limited Edition Audiophile 180-Gram Double LP Set with Exclusive Artwork from Hugh Syme, exclusive Dream Theater mouse pad (WOW! – endsarc), BC&SL Litograph and BC&SL “Producer’s Edition” Disc Includes Isolated Audio Tracks of the Entire Album.

The “Producer’s Edition” Disc contains separate audio tracks that can be mixed and re-mixed. Just like what Nine Inch Nails had given their fans, but Dream Theater and Roadrunner Records are making the fans coughing up some money for the tracks.

OK, that’s enough wisecracks from me.
