Earlier I've mentioned our ongoing problems with audiobooks. You'll recall issues fall into two categories, one actually recognising a track as being a book rather than music, the other being the chaotic nature of listings within the audiobook category.
I was impressed with the ease that tracks can be tagged as audiobooks in iTunes 8 and beyond, but one small glitch has been noticed since then. When you class an item as an audiobook it seems that this is placed within the iTunes local database files rather than embedded in the tracks (as was the case when converting from .m4a to .m4b). In practice if you only use your books on a single PC this is no problem, but if you transfer your audiobooks from one machine to another you will have to recategorise them all as audiobooks.
A step forwards? A step backwards? Take your pick.
