I agree, Otto, but I would go one step further. That is, to be able to turn on and off through settings, those features you don't want to see and/or use. For example, if I don't use podcasts, turn it off and don't have to look at that feature or if I don't listen to music, I should be able to turn off the music portion and not have to look at it. I can do some of that on the iPhone/iPad. Can we do that in iTunes on the computer?
