Hello all!

I've read many comments that the new WMP11 interface is better than the interface used in iTunes. That's strange for me 'cause I still prefer the good old iTunes library interface. It's more intuitive. It's easier to find a track in iTunes IMHO. Yes, WMP11 library is prettier probably, but I open a music player to play the music not to watch the album covers after all! So please vote which library interface is better for you in terms of usability.

iTunes library is actually usable.

And anyone else find it annoying that you cant manually add files to the WMP library? I mean WTF were the devs thinking about when they coded it?

I've used both, I buy my music from iTunes (wider selection) but love the library functions of WMP11 - i don't know why, but it all makes more sense to me. :)

I love the WMP11 library layout. Unfortunately in my gigantic iTunes library, a good amount of songs don't transfer meta-data correctly when added to WMP11, so I'll be sticking with iTunes for now, which, in the end, is good enough anyways for me.

I think iTunes is miles better in all areas, prettiness included, but especially in how easy it is to use.

I absolutely hate the libray in WMP11. There NEEDS to be a way to just show all your songs in a list (like WMP10) and not in the BS little groups. And the album art thing is cute.....if you have less than about 10 albums. Which no one has.

iTunes. Lesser of two evils.

I love iTunes because it's very simple, very easy to use and because I have an iPod.

I also love the way WMP 11 looks, but it is just too fiddly for me. So iTunes gets my vote.
