What happened to iTunes DJ?

There's no way to pick a bunch of songs and start playing. It forces you to pick one of your playlists vs. create a random mix. This latest release lost one of the most important features!

When I select a bunch of songs and say play next, then hit play...it starts playing the playlist of the screen I last left vs. the songs that I just chose. I have no way to just play the songs I added to the "play next."

VERY disappointing. Is there a way I can revert back?

I really hate what they've done to iTunes with Version 11. It is a huge set back and leaves me wanting to try to figure out how to reinstall earlier versions or to simply give up on it all together and seek another format. One used to be able to have guests pick upcoming songs with the "remote" application through iTunes DJ. That was removed. Also, you used to be able to use upcoming songs as a screen saver in the "cover flow" under View. Doesn't exist anymore. Who makes these decisions, and why has iTunes selected to regress rather than progress? Such a pitty.

What ever happened to the section of music that your other apple devices can

view or hear. I have the current version and I think all you have to do in iTunes is make a playlist.

Well, a lot of time has passed, and Apple has never responded to these pages of mourning for iTunes DJ. Strange, it's been probably a year since I opened iTunes. Still have 10.7 on my big iMac, but, I've just found so many other ways to listen to music than apple products. Oh well.
