System.ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings is Obsolete

This is the most irritating warning message in my C# coding experience. I have been using the AppSetting regardless of this warning message, but was recently told that even though the code compilation occurs in a similar manner, it is a burden to the C# compiler for this particular line and just for people to understand the warning again.... this is the crappy message 1 more time: 'System.Configuration.ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings' is obsolete: 'This method is obsolete, it has been replaced by System.Configuration!System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings' Now why the heck does the System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager not exist!!!!

Maybe SOPA might have restricted Amazon to a certain extent but it's MP3 uploader has been present for some time now and the SOPA has nothing to do with the software (or perhaps introduced purposely) chinks. Maybe a good space for it...
