Q: iTunes 12.5.1.21 Apple Music UI Distorted

After upgrading to iTunes 12.5.1.21 for Windows, I've noticed the Apple Music pages are large and the font is distorted/pixelated. See the default open below.  Really, only two options for a 1920x1080 display?

Here are the problems I see:

  • attempt to "zoom out" of the page only makes the font worse and grainy

  • cannot scroll to the bottom of page to see full menu options (can barely see new artists)

  • hovering over icon on mouse makes me select a different icon (was hovering over calvin harris, notice the play button)

    This is a known issue with the UI on version 12.5.1.21 of iTunes if your display is set to anything greater than 100%. If you can stand tiny icons and microscopic text, set your display to 100% and the Store. Browse, etc. will appear normal. This is not a fix or resolution. It is a workaround.  My display is set to 125%. I can live without the Store until this is fixed.
