I'm personally interested in his success with MythTV, Mac Mini and
Linux. If I find out that that it works well for him, I might be in
the same boat and want to go buy one too. I could care less about OSX
or any of the applications designed to run on OSX. If I get one it'll
be running linux with mythtv and nothing else. But not to be too frank
about it, I've used iTunes... I personally think its inadequate and
quirky as a media management tool. The purpose for iTunes, above all
else, is for you to buy music from Apple and make Apple stock go up.
Everything else is just icing. If I were to use something like iTunes
as a media management tool for a desktop (which again, has little to
do with mythtv...) I'd be more inclined to use something that doesn't
run so badly with the size of my library much like mediamonkey. But I
have to ask, why should a mythtv list even care what I think about
tools like this?

You are my new bestest friend. Seriously, I do not use the iTunes Music
Store. The one thing I liked about iTunes was getting podcast updates
automatically, but I can just download those anyway.
As an update to the whole MythTV end of this conversation ;-) , I went a
looking last night after my first round of errors on initial
"./configure, qmake mythtv.pro, make" and found some tracks in the snow.
I emailed the guy, but no reply yet. He was posting to the mythtv-dev
list and got no reply. This could be over before it really gets started!
In which case, I will look at Ubuntu or one of the others that claims to
have MythTV working on Macs, if not Minis. Failing that, he said tucking
his tail between his legs, OSX and the limited MythFrontend
and...iTunes. Yesh.
