This works on Ubuntu 11.10. There is a lot of quality content on ITunes and using Ubuntu as my main OS meant I couldn't access it. But this is awesome! I can finally download those lecture videos. Thank you!

FWIW, it appears the project also provides an Android application: http://sourceforge.net/projects/tunesviewer/files/Android/

I tried it on my HTC Desire (Cyanogedmod 7.1.0) and the search function in the app turned up the Harvard statistics class immediately.

I hope those accounts below who lamented that they were on their Android tablets see this link.

Thank you! After several attempts to download these with iTunes, I'm actually having rather more luck with this software.

The videos play fine under Totem movie player on current release of Linux Mint.
