Widgetbox, a marketplace for web widgets, today announced the Widgetbox Showcase for iTunes featuring the new My iTunes web widgets, giving users new ways to share their music and movie tastes across the web.

The My iTunes widgets can be used to share top reviews, favorite artists, new music, movies, and TV shows from the iTunes Store. These new widgets can be found by anyone who visits iTunes, the Widgetbox Showcase for iTunes, or any site with the widgets posted. The My iTunes widgets can be embedded on any Flash-enabled web site, including most social networking profiles and blogs. My iTunes feeds can also be used with any standard feed reader, keeping web pages up-to-date with favorite music, music videos, TV shows, and movies from the iTunes Store.

Also featured in the Widgetbox Showcase for iTunes is the Widgetbox MixIt, a web tool that turns any iMix playlist feed into a web widget that then can be posted on social network profile pages, blogs, and other personal web pages. With the MixIt tool, iTunes users can build their personalized playlist on iTunes, and then share their customized iMix music selections with others.

Users who already have iMix lists published in the iTunes Store can immediately use Widgetbox’s MixIt tool to create their customized iMix widget. Once this process is completed, the MixIt widget can be embedded in social-networking profile pages, blogs, and other web pages.
