It was that "What I see displayed using the various iTunes views of attached artwork looks low-res and/or badly anti-aliased." Your lack of mentioning which view is what caused a confusion from others and an annoyance from you that everyone didn't automaticly know what view you meant. -- Woody www.alienrat.com

Your original post made no mention of Coverflow.

[snip] When you claim `clearly isn't always', in response to me saying it clearly looks that way always to me, I fail to understand your mind.

Yes, Woody, but all that got cleared up ages ago in this thread. So why bring it up again?

Your only route now is, like I said, to file a bug report with Apple if you truly think it's a problem. They're the only ones who can tell you the hows, whys and wherefores of what's happening. Must admit that I very rarely use it, personally. It's a pretty useless view for my purposes.
