Where is option to have side bar in iTunes 12 ?

Well ... in that case ... simply ask all the producers, chiefs, sub-chiefs and all the different department managers ...

You can have the best design, it's worthless if the developers are not as good and simple thinking in code as the concept and

the design behind it.

PERIOD!

But you can do non-sense work daily to satisfy your boss and end up like this ..

... and it ends up like this the same way for the product itself.

PERIOD!

Thank the smart people for making Winamp for mac !!!!! New itunes interface = waste of time. I was happy with 11. Infact, i would have used it for anoghter 20years !!!

Before I went mac, winamp was great, look the same for 10 years and work just as well on the last day I used it. Who got time for re-learning a POS version with missing features ????

I took a look at this software. The reviews are pretty bad.

To my mind, iTunes "peaked" at 10.7. I worked hard to avoid version 12 but somehow the upgrade occurred when I turned my back on my Mac Pro. 😉

thank you!! that was driving me nuts

Thank you so much. I think an avid iTunes user wouldn't ask "why do you need that?" LOL

I think the iTunes / Winamp situation is the same as the Mail / Thunderbird issue, where a third party App is far better than the clunky in-house version. The fact that a third party App is quicker, more responsive and works seamlessly is interesting, when the relevant Apple Apps are clearly not as good. It's a pity because the issue appears to be about change for the sake of it rather than integrity as, Apple seem to make changes all the time as if the Apps will devalue without constantly interfering with them. It's an apparent addiction at Apple. We still breathe air and drink water, that alone should tell Apple something. The simplicity and workability of an App is everything and iTunes and Mail have suffered along the way. Each new OSX brings the hope of redemption, however, it's a lost cause because the self justification always overrides common sense.

well it does demonstrate that "better" is a very subjective measurement. For instance, Thunderbird's absence of Applescript support make it quite useless to some users...

Running Win 10 Pro 64bit and using iTunes 11.4. I simply refuse to go to iTunes 12 for any reason.
