iTunes hiccup for no reason

So I recently updated my iTunes from the older version that I had never bothered to update, to iTunes 7 (7.1.1.5, to be exact).
There's a strange problem: as it runs through my playlist, there's a several-second freeze that occurs each time it shifts from one track to the next, usually occuring when there are 4 seconds left in the track.
The 'hiccup' lasts anywhere from 2-8 seconds, roughly, and affects my entire computer, not just iTunes. In other words, I'll be surfing or writing a paper, and the system will lock up for a bit just as a song is ending.
Oddly, this doesn't happen at all if I manually hit 'next' and move from one song to another - only when I allow it to transfer naturally. The problem didn't occur at all until I updated iTunes.
Any suggestions, H/A?

Also, try checking the console (Applications -> Utilities -> Console in the Finder) and see if anything related to iTunes pops up.
Maybe iTunes 7 is just buggy.
