I dont like it because its really big for the toolbar bar. Why not give the optiion to chose the older?

Well, options mean we made a bad feature, so let\'s get this one right. Although, it seems to me that we used to get more people complaining about the old one and it being hard to adjust because the vertical area was so short.

I like the new one better, it\'s bigger and thus easier to adjust the volume.

If you don\'t like it, remove it from your toolbar. It\'s possible to change the volume using your scrolling wheel on the amarok systray icon. The old one was a waste of space anyway, because you could barely use it...
