Start-up to make iTunes sing on Linux

CNET: "CodeWeavers, which specializes in software that lets Windows programs run on Linux, said on Monday that it has a new version of its software that adds support for Apple Computer's iTunes. The company said CrossOver Office 3.1 adds support for the jukebox and music download software. The version is currently in preview form and is being made available only to existing CrossOver Office customers. 'iTunes has been our No. 1 most requested application,' CodeWeavers CEO Jeremy White said in a statement. 'We remain confident that by the end of 2005, the majority of Windows applications will be supported by CrossOver Office. Until then, we're pleased to be bringing the appeal of iTunes to Linux users through the development of version 3.1.' A final version is expected later this year."

So, this is interesting for a number of reasons, but what strikes me most is the quote: iTunes is the number one requested application? Unreal.
