Things haven't changed for the worse. As for iTMS arrows on individual songs, I think that should happen only on shared playlists (which is more likely to mean you don't own that music than all the other options). As for the mention of me in the article, it's because I was chatting with Erik at the time about that. I'm developing a <a href="http://wootest.net/imbezel2.png">song announcer bezel for Windows</a> using the COM interface and Visual Basic, similar to those you can get via other accessory programs on the Mac, although not quite as configurable (yet anyway).

Wish lists are in. Make a playlist, then drag any song from the store to it. The song is then listed for future purchase. Only thing that seems to be missing is a "buy all" option. I only got to play with it for about 5 min. though, so I might have missed it. Erik, you missed a new feature that you're bitching about. Wish lists are in.

They take you to the Music Store search results for whatever field you clicked on. What I want them to do is limit my "field of view" in the Library to active playlist to that particular Artist/Album. It's rather pointless to have it on individual songs, especially the way Apple did it. If I already have the song in my Library, why would I want to go back to the Music Store and see it there? it would be perfect if clicking the arrows in your Library put the text of the field you clicked on in the live Search field and instantly brought you to anything containing that text. My ideal isn't 100% perfect, but it's better then going back to the Music Store, that's for darn sure. It could work with a little Apple UI tweaking, though. Perfect for picking out a particular artist or album when you're normally on shuffle! I think the grey arrows in the library is a good idea, but they executed it wrong.
