You need to return to the tab interface. It made so much more sense to swipe between artists, songs, albums etc instead if going back and forth between the side menu.

Who ever thought that was a good idea should be fired.

Why on earth did someone think "Swiping left or right or right between songs and artists is too easy, let's have them tap a small button in the top left, then tap 'My Music', then tap a category. That would certainly be better."

It's absurd that a UI would get "updated" to make things harder to accomplish. In addition, people have been asking for imported songs to be included under the 'Artists' and 'Songs' lists for months and months now, and instead we get this awful UI regression. (How hard can that it be? It's probably like five lines of code.)

Sometimes developers spend too much time on the computer so they get bored and come up with crazy ideas like this.

I'm almost tempted to find an older apk and install it and won't update my app till Spotify understands that their new way is not the right way.

Touch preview? Why do you need such a thing? Tap on the song and listen to to it.

Good call. I think I'll do the same. I'm also looking forward to trying out Deezer when it launches.
