Noooo...Clearly the large number of people who 
_used_the_download_software_illegally_ spoiled the party for others.

At the very least, there is a great risk that only iTunes 4.0.1 (or 
perhaps 4.0.2 or 4.1) will run on Panther. Also, there are other bug 
fixes in iTunes 4.0.1 that you may not want to miss out on (for 
example, AppleScript support works for streamed tracks). Then again, 
I'm convinced it won't be more than a day before there is a solution 
which will allow streaming (and downloading) again.
