The shutdown is to occur on May 31st, shortly before WWDC, so is this a sign that iTunes will be incorporating some type of streaming? I'm not so sure on it based on the theme of WWDC and its orientation this year towards apps versus OS X software. But it does give one food for thought, what are yours? </p>
