I'm downloading this right now. This would have to be the slowest download in the world.

How long is it taking?

[sunkast]

Doesn't sound all that exciting to me. Plus they are still using Roxio.

[Duvi]

How long is it taking?

I don't even know... 17 kb/sec (60.9mb file)

You do the math!

Yeah... 4.6 sounds more exciting. iTunes syncing is something I've been waiting for.

[brothamoveson]

Yes I believe I will wait.

Anyone know where I get a copy of the beta.

[PaulM-D]

Well, it does appear to sync a whole lot slower than the current released version.

Extremely. However the sync I did this morning was quite a bit faster. My CPU usage spiked to 85% with this also. Talk about jacking everything else up...
