Apple also recently released new “Apple Audio Mastering Tools” which now only includes the “Mastered for iTunes droplet.” The tool is a standalone, drag-and-drop OS X utility that allows you to “automate the creation of iTunes Plus format masters” and preview music using the encoding tech Apple’s uses for the iTunes library.

I have no idea how Tarekith has been in business for so long, seeing mastering is so easy anyone can do it.

Apple hit posted their mastered for iTunes info, a little over hyped initially, but some good technical info and tools in there for us soon to be extinct mastering guys. . Mainly it's just a tool to convert normal masters into the correct iTunes format. Doesn't actually master anything for you.

I'll happily master stuff just for iTunes, as long as I can wear my apple earbuds while I do it.
