Jacob,
Thanks for the 8.0.2 link. I don't plan to get a shuffle anytime soon
and am sad for those who do for if they don't fix the mess they have
made of 8.1, there are going to be a lot more unhappy campers than
there now are including me since I found out that I cannot play music
for any extended period of time before ITunes becomes unstable.

Hi Justin
You can get 8.0.2 by going to this Apple support page:
iTunes 8.0.2 for Mac
and click the download link.
Note that downgrading is a bit of a pain, not only do you need to
remove 8.1 manually but you'll also have to rebuild your library, as
8.1 changed its format, probably to handle the language tags for the
new Shuffle. At any rate, it renders the library incompatible with
8.0.2.
I'm in the process of doing this now, as I found another bug in 8.1,
completely unrelated to accessibility but it was the final straw for
me. I hope 8.1.1 or however it will be numbered will get a lot more QA
that 8.1 obviously didn't get. For those curious, the bug in question
prevents me from changing audio tracks in Movies if you have more than
one track, as I do with my custom rips and some iTunes Store
purchases, so if I get stuck on the surround track for example I
cannot change to the stereo, or I can't access the director's
comments, etc. Very annoying on top of all the accessibility problems
this version has given me, and I've basically exhausted my patience
with 8.1

The major difference between a thing that might go wrong and a
thing that cannot possibly go wrong is that when a thing that cannot
possibly go wrong goes wrong it usually turns out to be impossible to
get at or repair.
