itunes 9 itunes plus gone

TAKING FOREVER TO DOWNLOAD ITUNES! Annoying!?
So I just bought an iPod Touch and whenever you press "Home" the symbol: iTunes Connect iPod: appears on the screen. Then when I logged on to the computer the error saying: Unable to add the iPod touch unless you download version 8.2 or higher. So I went to the iTunes website and had the option to download 9.0. I entered my email and now is up. Then, after rising, said: Thanks for uploading, iTunes Plus now download Quicktime. Here is where he has been through a MINUTE! Soo, and I'm tired of this. Only I want my ipod touch to connect to iTunes! But always having to do it! What can I do to get my iPod connected to iTunes faster than this! Thanks
The short answer is, its gonna take a while. iTunes is a very very large, and usually takes a couple of hours to download. As far as other iTunes slowdown go, everything do with iTunes is slow around the holidays, you cannot help. Apple servers are being persecuted around the world trying to use his gifts at once. Breathe, take a walk, do some chores, and let iTunes do its thing. will be worth the wait.
Which?: Apple launches iPod Nano 5G with video camera plus iTunes 9
