Amarok 2.0

(Probable flamebait, written over loosing metadata (again))
Not borked. Fucking borked.
Compare to 1.4 and you will see.
Everything in 2.0 was broken, mashed and made into functionality not even remotely maching 1.4's.
2.2 beta? Don't even try it. Loosing collection (metadata) all the time, crashes, pause working, as stop/play instead of pause/play.
Could go on and on, but it's not the point. Linus Torvalds pinned this some time ago. It can be justified as for the whole KDE4. It's completely different from 3.x, Plasma, widgets, effects, etc. As for Amarok this does not apply. What new have we? New layout? Cosmetics. Migration to MySQL? Like I need a full blown database for my music. Phonon? 1.4 had modular engines.
Amarok 2.0 should NEVER left beta state until it was beyond 1.4. NEVER EVER!
