^ iTunes: Great in 2001. Now it's bloated, slow, doesn't handle large libraries well,

What is considered a large library? I have about 3500 songs, and I am not having problems.

I have about 16k and it's almost unusable. From what I hear the PC version performance is much worse than the Mac version though.

Ok, that is much larger than mine. :-) I'm just curious of the point that iTunes becomes unusable.

So far, no problems in either XP or OS X for me

14k. OSX. MacBook. No problems.

I have 52k, usage is fine on iMac late 2007, but at times a little bit slow when scrolling through the cover art.

60k or so, enough to actually need a music manager :)
