is shit. dont upgrade. everythings all over the place, the organisational structure is terrible. if i view by album most of the tracks aren't even grouped together, some albums manage to stay together but others ive got 30 of the same album covers next to each other and i cant find anything.

Sort your ID3 tags out and it'll look better then.

Not downloading, got fed up after they went on a spree of updates

look at all the funky house classics, theyre everywhere. the beatport stuff had the album title of "beatport top 100 november 2012" so were grouped together as 1 album now theres 100 seperate tracks littered all over the place. its not even in alphabetical order!

So all the tracks that belong to the album "beatport top 100 november 2012", all have the same ID3 Album Title?

As Whittie pointed out, i suspect ID3 tags are the issue; iTunes has a habit of fucking around with them.

Alternatively, use something else - http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/10-mac-osx-music-player-altern-139519 (Songbird is pretty good and what i use to run).

Think it's something to do with it sorting them Album by Artist or something silly?

I think it's great, the theming of the UI based on the album art is

The mini player is cool too.

Compilations are handled badly in iTunes in general. They often aren't grouped into one album because the artist on each track is different.

IIRC there's a check box when you look at the properties of each track which says whether or not it's part of a compilation.

Just upgraded mine and it's kept all the compilations together and at the bottom of the list but for some reason lists whoever the first track is by as album artist

Also annoying that you seem to be stuck with 7 albums per row. Preferred having 10 on the old one and can't seem to find the setting to change it

Also doesn't show how big the library is at the bottom anymore, used to like knowing I could listen to music for 85 days straight
