My iTunes Widgets from Apple
Apple has released a web widget that allows users to embed their recent iTunes Purchases, iTunes Reviews and iTunes Favorites into their website, blog or social networking profile. The new service is called My iTunes
To start, you need to log into the iTunes Store. From there you click "Enable My iTunes" from your profile and check off which features you want to display:
- My iTunes Purchases - The most recent music, music videos, TV shows, and movies you've purchased from the iTunes Store.
- My iTunes Reviews -Music, music videos, TV shows, and movies you've given a 4- or 5-star rating on the iTunes Store.
- My iTunes Favorites - The artists whose music you've purchased the most from the iTunes Store.
The end result is a Flash widget (Screenshot shown here):

We've enabled this tag temporarily for people to share their itunes.
Instructions: To embed your own into the forums, you need to get your "userid" from the Get HTML Code URL from iTunes after you've enabled My iTunes.

That is pretty cool... looks like a good way to learn about interesting new music from people, but some of the websites out there are absolutely awesome for this. I guess apple paid attention when sites like Last.fm were bought by CBS for 280 million...
