I would rather use WMP via WINE, it is that bad.

Not that I am saying the program is bad, perhaps some people like it, I don't know. But what I do know is that I think it is terrible.

Amarok 2 is just like the rest of KDE4 (possibly excluding Digikam), if I had to describe it in one word, it would be: pretentious.

Sure, I might be being a little harsh, criticising Amarok2 non-constructively, this is due to the fact that starting over wouldn't be classified as constructive.

Amarok2 shouldn't be part of the Amarok series, it is like if Dolphin was called Konqueror2, **** UI, removed most functionality and was intended to be Konqueror's replacement.

Don't say "Just stick with Amarok 1.4 than" because it is obviously stagnant, all feature requests are assigned to Amarok 2 and than are subsequently deleted.

I wish for a fork

Please do us all a favor and fork it.

End of discussion!
