The new music app is abysmal.

Is there a way to have the Podcasts section as a tab instead of having to press more then Podcasts?
It really isn't even close to being the same as it was. That is a pretty ignorant statement

I think you're talking about the Music app on the iPad, right? You never said that.
yeah not impressed with the 'music' changes. My personal pet peave is the change in appearance, and the fact that now all your artists are now just album artwork grid style, rather than the nice clean scrolling list. Hopefully they'll give you an option to go back to the other style in 5.1 if enough people complain?
All music appears in cover flow now?? I hope that's not the case on the iphone too...
Why do they REMOVE features, instead of just adding or improving? I don't get it..
I goofed. i meant browsing artists. They used to be in a detailed list. now it is the same artwork grid like when you browse for albums.
Do you have a iPad 1 or 2? Taping in the center does not work on my iPad 1. I have tried many times. Anyone else with an iPad 1 having trouble?
Also, I can download the last week of the WSJ, but I had a month of journals saved. I was busy last month and was behind on my reading. I can not download those without paying iTunes.
Man - this is terrible!! Does anyone know if this is just a bug? Did it work in previous betas? Does it work on the iPhone after iOS 5?

Part of me likes the new interface better, makes it more uniform with iTunes but I hope they bring the lyrics back. I don't really understand why they split the music and video either. Not a fan of that change.

I thought I noticed the same thing, thought I was crazy.

It's a bug... some of my songs have lyrics and some don't. Some play music and some don't. If you have this problem you have to do a complete restore.
On the iPad, you actually have songs that show lyrics?
Just want to completely verify before I do a restore. Wait, BS. I shouldn't have to do a frickin' restore just to show lyrics
What's with all the album art? I stopped caring about album art when I switched from LPs to CDs. (Oops I dated myself.)
On the iPad, If you're looking at playlists, you can't tell if you're looking at a folder with playlists in it, or just a playlist.
In the list view, the button to go back a view is on the top left. If you're looking at the playing song's album cover, the button to go back is on the bottom right?
If you're in the list view in a non-genius playlist and hit the genius button for the song playing, nothing appears to happen, except the little speaker icon next to the playing song goes away. You're actually now playing the genius playlist, but you have to hunt back through the playlists to find it. If you already in a genius playlist and create a new one, the list view refreshes.
