No. It has been ages between 7.6 and 7.7 There are stacks of changes. For example 7.7 is required to run the new iPhone, control iTunes via a iPod Touch or iPhone etc.

Did someone just recieve the latest update?
I downloaded mine a moment ago and I totally agree with you. I keep expecting to see a fancy new layout, but nothing changes. I am not sure why I border downloading the upgrades.

Yeah, a couple of them probably have been for that but I must have downloaded at least 15 updates in the last 2 years and haven't noticed any improvements.

Lol, yeah downloaded it there aswell!

Agree about changing the layout, getting a bit bland after all these years! lol Even the option of changing the background colour would do me.

Well it added movie support, support for Apple TV, support for rentals, iTunes Plus files etc.

Cheers for the link mate, surprised at the amount of changes Suppose their hard to notice as there aren't many visual improvements, which their should be IMO.

Apple has slowed in recent times, but there was a period a few months back where they released several updates within a month without any feature changes.

Really, Apple's updates only add support for new hardware or for things in the iTunes Store.
