Full FeedPossible iTunes 9 screenshots
The BoyGeniousReport has some screenshot to go along with recent rumors surrounding iTunes 9. If you don’t recall, the update is supposed to add support for sharable playlists via Facebook integration, 3rd party devices (seriously?) and Blu-Ray playback.
This first picture is a bit hard to make out, but you can see the distinctive Facebook icon on the left side. That’s pretty much it here… wait, is that a Blu-Ray in the devices list?
Here’s how the update to the clichéd anonymized Facebook page would look like. I’m betting this link will bring one of your friends to an iTunes Store playlist that you’ve shared, likely with 30-second previews of all of your songs. I’m also betting non-iTunes Store songs will not be allowed. Just a guess though.
Here’s a currently unsupported device, which will be supported, I suppose. How did this slip past Steve Jobs?
I really want this to be a the Blu-Ray version of The Simpsons Movie, but the name of the image file cites DVD playback. I’m still optimistic, though.
iTunes 9 is supposedly imminent, so perhaps we’ll see these features very soon. I wouldn’t rule out the rumored press event on September 9th.

What- so all the Facebook integrated playlists do is ADVERTISE for Apple? There’s no way for people to actually play the tracks on your playlist other than the 30 second sample? I don’t really see this as a particularly attractive addition at all. All my Facebook friends are just going to laugh at me if I post something like this on Facebook!
