If you load 2000 songs you'll be scrolling 100 songs with the tiniest gesture you make while you can only see 20 on the screen - the smallest drag would move so man songs so fast that it would be impossible to find anything at all.

The only thing a scrollbar is good for is to get you to a specific region of your list and if your list is too long, on a 3.5 screen you won't have any finesse at all.

The whole point of kinetic is:
a) 2 swipes, ultra fast scrolling and yet allowing you to see the first few characters so you always know where you are - some lists even show tou the letter you are on to.
b) 1 swipe aka not having to torture your finger with the tiny scroll bar buttons when the list is too big for a bar.

Do me a favor and THINK before posting rubbish. Take a 2000 page document and read through it by using only the scroll bar; let me know how many (10-20) pages you scroll at once.
Secondly "kinetic" exists "in a way" on PCs for ages - smart people call it scroll and it usually equals to a moderate swipe across the screen.
Third, office mice have actual kinetic where a middle click + scroll act like two very fast swipes and take you in a matter of seconds across whole documents.

If there was a contest for narrow minded people you'd win your weight in gold.

Now take a screwdriver and rip that wheel of your mouse for a few days, see how "comfy" it is

This picture shows exactly how the tiniest move of a 2000DPI laser mouse on a scrollbar in a 2000-page document moves 20 pages at once.
If you'd try to do this with your finger you would probably scroll 50+ pages at once.
Solutions:
1) click the tiny arrows
2) click the keyboard
3) use an android scroll wheel
4) stop whining about kinetic, it's here to stay.
