Agreed. The UI is horrible and getting worse with every release. What used to be a decent interface for digging through Genre -> Artists -> Albums is now hidden behind super kludgey nonsense. To get a fresh install of iTunes into a usable state with a music library of any reasonable size is a huge pain. The idea that the default interface should basically just be a window with big album art is probably the worst thing they ever did.
