iTunes now working under Linux?

without comments

I’m going to take this article with a grain of salt. I’ve tried (and failed) to get iTunes working properly in Ubuntu in the past but to no avail.

Wine is a great program, is regularly updated with new fixes and maybe (just maybe?) the latest Wine release has finally meant iTunes will run flawlessly.

 I plan on testing this out myself in the next 24 hours.

Stay tuned….
