Blender and Itunes

I am currently working on a project using Blender. However, when I go to to use itunes and listen to my music at the same time, both of them get messy to work with.

  1. If itunes is running and i want to render, itunes skips and is not responsive while i render a test photo or a scene.
  2. If i am rendering while itunes is playing a song, it takes ages to get a keyframe done.

Both programs are not happy and are slow when i try to use them at the same time, should i use a dedicated computer for blender and to render my projects on that computer?

You might consider limiting the resources blender can use for rendering. It could be better than having them fight eachother.
