Lets face it. The now playing screens in the iPad music player/lock screen is not very good. Theres simply too much wasted space. So I took a little time to do a slight modification and I really do think its much better than what Apple has done. Larger album art, NON-CRAMPED controls that look like a blown up iPhone app. My only question is WHY THE HELL DIDNT THEY TRY A LITTLE HARDER!

Ironic since they are pushing iTunes radio like crazy and they supposedly "care" so much about music to push out something that looks so unfinished.

I really like your new lock screen concept. However, your in-app design looks off to me because the art is not centered vertically.
