Apple has a new iTunes version for you, iTunes 10.0.1, and it’s now available to download for both Windows and Macs. iTunes 10 has been released at the beginning of September, bringing support for Ping, Apple’s first social network, on board, and this 10.0.1 version is simply an update which will bring you a new sidebar for Ping in iTunes, which is supposed to make sharing stuff with friends a lot easier.

Naturally, besides this must-have feature for some, but unimportant for others, iTunes 10.0.1 brings some new features and improvements as follows:

iTunes 10.0.1 makes it easier to share your favorite music with your friends on Ping. You can now Like or Post about music right from your iTunes library. You can also easily see the recent activity of a selected artist in your library, or of all artists and friends you follow on Ping using the new Ping Sidebar.
This release also provides a number of important bug fixes, including:
• Addresses an issue where the picture quality of a video changes depending on whether the on-screen controls are visible.
• Resolves an issue where iTunes may unexpectedly quit while interacting with album artwork viewed in a separate window.
• Fixes a problem that affects the performance of some third-party visualizers.
• Addresses an issue where the iTunes library and playlists appear empty.
• Resolves an issue that created an incompatibility with some third-party shared libraries.
iTunes 10 comes with many new features and improvements, including:
• Introducing Ping. Use Ping to follow your favorite artists and friends or connect with the world’s most passionate music fans. Discover the music everyone is talking about, listening to, and downloading.
• Rent HD TV episodes for just 99¢ each. Watch them on your Mac or PC, on-the-go with iPhone or iPod touch, or in your living room with the all new Apple TV.
