I prefer to loudly sing along with whatever's playing on my iTunes while I am editing books in Calibre. (am woman, can multitask).

Which becomes first a little amusing, then highly annoying, because whenever Calibre is doing something, iTunes quits playing on me for a while. As soon as Calibre is done (fetch news, add book, convert etc), my music resumes.

PC specs: Vista Ultimate, 2 monitors, and the all important: 3GHz, 4GB of DDR2 This should be more than sufficient to do both tasks simultaneously without me going out of breath from holding a note while iTunes/Calibre figure things out, right?

Tried checking/unckecing CPU core setting in Calibre Preferences, didn't seem to do much.
