Anybody knows how to remove those hideous arrows, I failed to do so since v9. I remember this is something about iTunes Store I could disable them before but since v9 and now in v10 they just wont go. :pinch:

It seems they automatically appear now only when a song title is highlighted, and there's no way to get rid of them or change where they link to (the iTunes Store) like in earlier versions.

Big problem with iTunes 10

When an album is playing in the background and I am in grid view, and I am about to get album art work for an album which is bottom of the list. If next track starts playing, my list looses focus and takes me back to the album which is playing. So I have to again scroll down to go to the desired album to change the album art.

Frustrating problem.

While I was (as a Windows user) fairly okay with the previous versions this one is the worst version of iTunes ever released.

They introduced a lot of things that I don't link at all.

- The album art column is not re-sizable. Okay you can set the artwork on large, which means basically mean post stamp size. I usually made the first column quite big so I could watch my high resolution album art. Now all my art are small icons and my library has become a bit lifeless
- Grey, grey, grey. When XP came out with there blue tele-tubby taskbar and wallpaper the Apple software looked stylish and professional. Now with Windows 7 the OS finally starts looking cool with all the glass effects. Instead of making the new interface fit in with windows; Apple decided to suck all of the color out of iTunes. Everything is so bland and boring...
- The new icon. Don't like it, hoped for something more creative but it doesn't bother me while using it
- The volume slider is almost as big as the search box. Very strange...
- While you can disable and hide homeshare and genius, you can't disable ping...unless you want to disable the whole iTunes store; a thing I do not want to do...

For the user who complained of the arrows that link to the store; you can disable them. I did that in iTunes 9 and it still seems to work cause after upgrading I still don't have any arrows. Check here for Windows users: http://ocram.org/wiki/FAQs/iTunes

I totally agree with this! I really hate this new look for album arts. :/

Don't forget to let Apple know. Many users on the apple forums are doing this too cause sometimes this seems to work: http://www.apple.com.../itunesapp.html

iTunes 10 isn't on there yet, so it's difficult to report.

Left a feedback on iTunes 9 section. Idiots at apple know that negative feedback for itunes would be overwhelming. So iTunes 10 option is not there.

Can someone tell me how I can get larger album art? Apparently, there's an option for larger artwork if you have 7+ songs on an album, but I can't figure out how to set this up.

And you can always set it to always show artwork through the View menu.

Thanks. Don't know why they couldn't just let you toggle the size via the View menu. The way it is now, it's kind of hidden.

I don't know about this whole faster on Windows thing..

I have a C2D 2.4Ghz and a C2Q 2.8Ghz and it's sluggish on both.. Just hitting play/pause takes a second or two to respond and it uses a massive amount of CPU..
It sucks because I love iTunes :( I just want it to be nice and fast too..
