Apple has just released iTunes 9.0.3, which looks like a big upgrade with a new look, among other things. Full details of the big, fat 100MB upgrade after the jump.
iTunes 9.0.3 provides a number of important bug fixes, including:
• iTunes no longer ignores your “Remember password for purchases” setting.
• Addresses problems with syncing some Smart Playlists and Podcasts with iPod.
• Resolves a problem recognizing when iPod is connected.

iTunes 9 comes with many new features and improvements, including:

• iTunes Store has a brand new look, with improved navigation for quick and easy exploration.
• iTunes LP and iTunes Extras create unique experiences that feature exclusive interviews, videos, photos, and more — available with select album and movie purchases on the iTunes Store.

• Genius Mixes are created for you by iTunes and play songs from your library that go great together.
