Thankyou very much =) We've worked very hard on the new version. (I say we,
I'm fairly new to Amarok, so I've got to give the credit to those who deserve 
it!)

A lot of the features have gone missing in the upgrade as Amarok has been 
effectively coded form scratch. But rest assured, the majority of features 
you're missing are on their way for 2.1. We have dropped a few elements, but 
we've added a whole lot more and nothing has been dropped without good reason.
And wit the new scripting interface, its possible to bring almost anything 
back in as a script.

Amarok 2.0 is still in beta testing. It's not quite ready for release yet. 
Hopefully most of the problems you have been experiencing will have been fixed 
by the time 2.0 is released.

Hopefully it'll be a bit better suited once it gets to release. =)

Thank you for your comments. They help give all our developers that warm fuzzy 
feeling inside =)
