So today I had a meeting at school and I didn't really had that much to do in that meeting, so I opened my iTunes and put one of my earbuds in my ear and listened to some music. Our whole campus has wireless internet, so we usually work on our own laptops at school. Anyway I don't how long I was listening to the music using iTunes. But when I went to see what song was next on the playlist, I suddenly noticed something on the left side in the iTunes window. And whadda ya know...I suddenly saw a complete different library and I realised I was looking at someone else's iTunes library! And then it dawned on me that if I could see someone else's iTunes library, then that person would also be able to see my iTunes library! I was like "OMG....I gotta close iTunes"! Cause I have some stuff in my library, that I really don't want to share with tha whole world ya know!

Cause it seems that iTunes can search for other libraries who are also in the same network as you are. And I was using the wireless connection from school and so many other people are also using this connection. So I had no clue who had their iTunes open as well and if they saw any of the stuff that was in my library :S!
Geez I hate it when programs have certain options enabled without you knowing it! I never saw this before, I knew the option of sharing libraries with other people existed and that it was possible with iTunes. But still...I think they should disable this option and when you do decide that you want to share your iTunes library with other people, you could always enable this option yourself later on.


I don't think it's a bad feature in iTunes. I just think that they should let people enable this option themselves. Cause I find it weird that people that I don't even know, can snoop around in my iTunes library without me knowing it! It's not that I have "incriminating" things in my library, well except the fact that I have certain podcasts in my library that have some interesting titles. But I don't "rename" the names of certain podcasts, cause I'm just too lazy to do it! And I don't think it's necessary, cause I'm usually the only one who sits behind my laptop and who uses iTunes.

Anyway...I've disabled the option now to share my iTunes library with others. But hadn't I seen that I was looking into someone else's iTunes library today, I wouldn't even know that I had this option enabled! So luckily it all ended well :). Ok that was my iTunes rant for today hahaha...sorry if I bored ya! I just had to get that out of my system and other then what happened today, I still think iTunes is an awesome program ;)!
