iTunes 8: 60 Second Review

Immediate reactions after first firing up iTunes 8, and configuring the Genius feature:

• Wow, I didn't think Apple could make iTunes look more inconsistent with the rest of the OS and itself than they already had. Guess they topped my expectations.
• Genius is cool, but why can't I resize it?
• Genius shows me some stuff I already have.
• Why doesn't Genius let me say "yes, I like this album," or "no, I hate this album?"
• I can't get rid of the little arrow links to the iTunes Store in the tabular view anymore. Very unfortunate.
• iTunes still uses song artist instead of album artist for sorting tracks. You'd think that no one at Apple ever listens to any rap or hip-hop (or any music where the album contains more than one artist). It shouldn't take me several clicks to listen to all of Stankonia or Thievery Corporation's The Cosmic Game.
