It must be open season for Apple's iTunes. Last week Sean Parker took aim at the popular digital jukebox and store by saying Spotify was going to overtake it in two years. Now Rdio's head of design, Wilson Miner, speaking toThe Verge about the company's redesign, said iTunes is old-fashioned.

Miner went on to say that Rdio is looking to truly transform the way people listen to music in this age. In his view, until recently there hasn't been much evolution in the way people think about organizing and listening music since the era of the CD player. He then likened iTunes to a "fancy CD changer". Ouch.
