Hi,

On iTunes, in "Recently Added" and "Albums", you get a nice view of your albums in tiles. But when you go to "Genres", my music gets listed like the "Artists" tab, meaning a list of big album tiles and all the songs next to it. I can't easily scroll through this to get to the album I want. Really one album takes an entire screen, whereas I could get 28 albums in one screen with "Recently Added".

Question is: I prefer to browse my library via "Genres", but as you can see below, it only shows 1 album. Is it possible to get a grid of album tiles like on the lower image?

The latest iTunes update reset all of my preferences. Everything - sorting, the way I use search, and the way I display songs, it's all reset to a terrible interface I can't seem to get used to. I tried to restore most of it, but it is becoming more and more a drag to use iTunes. Sigh.
 
Hmm seems that I can view the "Album" library both as list and as albums, but I can't choose for the "Genre" library. Guess I answered my own question, it's not possible.
