Are we Still Calling It iTunes?
iTunes has grown into more than a player for “tunes”. Now it handles movies, television shows, podcasts and more. It also serves as a syncing tool for now a phone with contacts, calendars ringtones etc… So we know that iTunes has become more of a “allMedia” program. The name “iTunes” does not suffice and the question is, what is in Apple’s plans for its media side in terms of branding?
