Yes, I have written it to be amazing, and I stand behind it. It depends on what you want. Firstly, a music player does not have to be, or perhaps should not be complicated and filled with things you do not need. Perhaps the developers feel that not every feature within a set of 100 players need to be implanted into a single one. Second, what I stated to be amazing is its visual and simple-to-use design. i really like the tiny details they put inside this app. The panoramic UI was replaced by a menu, which many find better, some not. I would agree only with the lack of album and singer bios. However, to call a Super FAIL...is a fail. I would rather see an option to preview albums. All in all it is AMAZING that it isn't fed with adds, bad, messy, and ugly UI.
For you who post comments, maybe MS listens. The new build 10149 changed some things in the app, and more could come based on even outside the windows feedback.
