iTunes 9 DOESN'T HAVE to suck -here's a fix!
Are you like the millions of other iTunes users who have been brought to you knees by the latest iTunes upgrade? Does iTunes hang until you kill it in Task Manager? (or force quit, for Mac types?)
It seems there are two major issues for Windows users:
First, the install locks up your iTunes files, designating them as read only. To fix this, go to C:\ProgramFiles and right-click on the iTunes folder. Select "properties", then uncheck "read-only" under Attributes, and apply.
The second issue is that iTunes 9 doesn't play well with previous iTunes Libraries. Go here for step by step instructions for rebuilding your iTunes library. Once you rebuild the library, you will have to resync your iPod or iPhone.
Some relevant discussions on the Apple.com forums if this doesn't help:

and there are dozens more. Just search for "itunes" and "crash" etc. on the apple discussion boards.
I came "this close" to venturing into the world of iTunes a couple of weeks ago. Then I chickened out.
