I'd beg to differ on the 500 miles being a "short distance", given that 500 miles is a good 8-10 hour drive.

And in some parts of the US, that could mean not seeing anything of importance in that time frame.

I've heard lots of people expressing themselves about how bad the new iTunes interface is.  Now that mine has updated itself, I can say that in my view it is just as bad as it was before, but different.  No worse (and no better), I'd say - apart from the added bugs.

For something that must be considered a major application (given the number of iDevices there are out there), it was, and remains, appallingly bad.

It took me a while to figure out how to get it back to something resembling how I had it before (you now have to "Show Sidebar" to get the list of libraries, devices and playlists).

I don't care much for it.

I remember several years ago, when I had a little more cash and a lot more free time, my wife and I would go on "day trips" to New Hampshire, NW Massachusetts/Mohawk Trail, occasionally to Mitsuwa Japanese Marketplace in Edgewater NJ...various other places with 250 miles of CT. Now that I travel the state for work, ironically I find less and less time (and more financial demands) for leisurely traveling. But I remember our week-long trip driving to Niagara Falls...I think I've gotta do that again.

TL;DR: I view miles much more casually than my parents, who would say that a 20-mile ride equates to a "day trip."

♫ Day tripper....day tripper, yeah.... ♫

Oh hey, I live on the Mohawk Trail!
