You might have noticed that the preference to show or not show arrows linking to the iTunes music store is no longer there in iTunes 8.

The iTunes we all know, love, and use has a convenient music sharing feature. It allows people on a the same network to listen to one another’s music. This is particularly useful in a University setting; you can see the music of everyone in a dorm, in a common area, and in the library.
