Oh man I'm starting to get really nervous about whether or not I should upgrade from 8.0 to 8.1 once it comes out. I mean Cortana sounds cool and all, but I'm perfectly happy right now with my phone and it doesn't have a Halo girl talking to me. On the other hand, I do listen to music and podcasts on my phone every day, and the music app in 8.0 is tolerable to OK. To hear that it's actually worse in 8.1 is just mind boggling. Even though I'm usually really into having the latest version and updating as soon as possible, I'm actually leaning towards not updating at this point...
