Something that was very much expected was iTunes in the cloud. You can sync your songs to the cloud and have them mirrored to your all your iOS devices (up to 10) at 256kbps quality. Previous songs that you did not purchase from iTunes can be accessed for $25 a year via iTunes Match, which will have the DRM overlords happy. The special thing about iTunes Match i that it matches your songs with the ones seen in the iTunes music store, which means nothing is uploaded, just copied in a few minutes. It’s a smart move, even though it’s DRM-focused.

So, iOS 4.3.3 is here. This mainly will rectify the public concern with the crowd-sourced location database that Apple was building by using users iPhones and iPads to build the data. What happens here is that all of your previously visited locations aren’t backed up to iTunes, and if you turn off Location Services, the data-collector would be turned off as well. All you need in order to start the update is plug in your iDevice to iTunes, like I am right now with the iPad 2. Oh, and the update is a rather large 607MB, by the way.
