Apple announced a bevy of new products, including new pretty little nanos, but most relevant to me was their new version of iTunes (v.8).
They added the coolest feature ever, which they call Genius. The concept is similar to what Pandora's been doing: helping you find new music based on the music you already have.
When you click on a track in iTunes, you get at least 20 suggestions of other tracks you might like by that artist and other artists. This means that your iTunes library information is being shared with Apple (oh no!) but it also means that the more people use it the better the recommendations will get over time (at least that's what they say).
I like it so far and I'm sure it means I'll be spending even more money on iTunes now.
