Does anyone else think the new iTunes looks awful?

Today as Apple announced the iPhone 5, new iPod Touch and Nano and iOS release next week, they also showed off a new version of iTunes which is a complete revamp, and I am scared, very scared.

As with OS X it seems to be getting dumber.

It looks like you have to look via album covers, instead of a text list, which is not convenient for someone with as big of a library as I have (I can’t even get an iCloud account as it won’t fit). And how does that work for playlists? Is that still a list?

I am not saying iTunes doesn’t need help, but I want a nice list view for things, and not have to use album covers! Hell many of my playlists are random, so they don’t have covers anyway!

I would also like to see the music sync window for iPods, as that has been a peave of mine and needed an update, but the site says nothing about how it works.

Honestly I am scared that this new version will cut down on functionality and only be for the lowest common denominator!

Please apple keep list views for those of us with huge libraries.
