The new iTunes format is horrible

What happened to iTunes? There are so many stupid animations and sub-windows, it takes forever to load the iTunes Store page. The new format to preview songs is horrible too as is the Power Search result window. After doing a Power Search for a Title, iTunes chooses to show me only a dozen or so choices of what IT thinks I want to preview, then one must choose "More" to see the entire list. Whomever came up with the new format should be forced to use a PC as punishment!
