The more I use it the more I realise itunes 11 is a piece of shit.
Half of the mp3's I drag into itunes don't even add to the library or even play -- even though they appear to be copied to the database. Bloody annoying.
Plus everything takes an extra click or two now. And all this useless icloud nonsense shoved down our throats.

this shit iCloud thing broke all my playlists, even though I was sure every song was downloaded to my iPad, of course when I got on the plane for a 13hr flight the songs wouldn't play cos i was offline.
A quick google showed this is happening to loads of people!

I really hate that there is no album artwork besides really really fucking tiny in the now playing screen. And yeah it does pop out, but I hate that.

Why people rush to update like that when everything is working fine is beyond meMiguex - LOL@Green Dayanimatedgif

The main problem I have with it is that display modes are so arbitrary now, used to be quite configurable.
It's not all bad, they fixed one of the main UX problem iTunes had: browsing music affected what was being played. E.g. if you were in an album view, pressed play and kept browsing, the playback would stop if you weren't in the same album view.

Grrrr. I regret not seeing this thread first. What a load of wank this is.

The search is horrible. You search for say AFX, and it comes up in this pop up box, though you can't bloody then click the track or album to bring it up in the main itunes window. So bizarre. Such a simple thing gone so wrong.

Now that I've used it for a week, I really like it.

I really like the new interface too. Thought they fixed the search thing? I've not had any issues with that. Although I don't get why when I copy new tracks to my iPhone they're greyed out, as if they haven't copied. What's all that about?

What I find most annoying is that I only updated itunes because I received a message saying it no longer worked with my phone... it used to work nothing changed and all of a sudden I recieve this message... anyway I only use itunes copy things from my laptop and nothing else.
I use amazon to buy my music and I use amazon cloud player to play the music. Cloud player is free to store your music and you just download the ones you want anyway when you get a wifi connection. Not really sure the last time I opened itunes unless it was to play a song, even then I just use my phone and pair it with bluetooth speakers in the house so pretty much don;t use itunes much these days.Still annoying though :P

OK let's make this useful - what's a good alternative? I've had it with shiTunes.
- pity the fool, etc.MrT
- Spotify. I was only in iTunes b/c I had no internet connection for a moment.ohhhhhsnap
- monospaced0
If you want the best alternative just use something from a company that's winning in the area. Only a dumbass would use iTunes for music. They have a user base of what, 20 people? Real music lovers use windows media player or their android phones and music stores. Duh.
