    I've just updated iTunes to v10, and have been greeted with this crappy looking tray icon.

    Is it too much to ask that they make a nice looking transparent tray icon?
    I suspect this is all part of their "make iTunes on Windows suck" policy.

    Anyone else seeing the same thing?
    I'm on XP with 32-bit colours, Royale Noir theme (looks just as bad with Olive, Blue or Silver)

    Yap!... this sucks... I'm using Win 7 32 bit and it looks crappy... Anyone with 64 Bit OS could try it for us maybe it would look fine in 64 bit OS...

    Exactly the same problem on Windows XP 32bit ( standard Windows XP style ). The taskbar icon looks decent though :confused:

    I don't use iTunes but that looks like something from ye old Windows98 . As for Apple's dreams of monopoly they can just go and shove it .
