iTunes — music, books, movies and more. It's impossible to keep up with all of it, but it's not impossible to pick out the very best. Here they are! This week we've got a new release from legendary pop band Erasure, a pre-order for the newest X-Men movie, a thought provoking documentary, free iOS 8 guides from Apple and more!</p> <!--break--> <h2>Erasure: The Violet Flame</h2> <div class="video_iframe"><iframe src="

A Little Respect,
Chains of Love, and
Always are the band's biggest hits in the U.S, but they've had dozens of top 40 hits in the U.K. and continue to churn out pop record after pop record, chock full of dance club hits. Their latest effort comes less than a year after
Snow Globe, a Christmas-themed album. It's darkly-tinged but still upbeat, with some EDM flourishes to keep it relevant to today's clubgoers. But still solidly Clarke and Bell throughout, safely in the hands of producer Richard X, who proved himself early on in the bootleg scene as someone who loves and respects the synthpop era from which Erasure itself emerged. Preorder now and get it Monday.</p> <ul><li>$9.99 - <a href="

She's been compared to Stevie Nicks and Alicia Keys (the latter of which she admits is an idol), and as weird as the combination is, the comparison holds. A strong voice with lovelorn lyrics, and beautiful, sparse arrangements, all deftly assembled behind the board by Tim Anderson (who's previously worked with Solange, Sia and others).</p> <ul><li>$3.99 - <a href="

and get ahead in life. This is a must-see documentary for anyone with kids approaching college age, or many already in school.</p> <ul><li>$4.99 - <a href="
