A few of you have probably upgraded to the new iTunes, and may have  
noticed the Music Store banner at the bottom of all playlists, which  
changes to show music store details of the song you are listening to...

I wanted to turn it off, mainly due to the fact it accesses the  
internet every time a new song comes up.. but also because it is  
slightly intrusive, and while Apple probably isn't recording what you  
are listening to... they are sending info on each song to the store.   
It didn;t seem to be draggable, and there was nothing in preferences  
about it...

This feature is called MiniStore, and it is enabled by default.  You  
can turn it off in Edit-> Hide MiniStore [I searched the preferences  
and help several times before Googling]

If you really want to see what i'm listening too - pop over to
