David: that is not current policy. When Jaunty was released, it shipped
Amarok 2.0.2, which unfortunately is already very old. To include a
newer version, Amarok 2.1 should have been released before the feature
freeze for Jaunty. As this was not the case, it goes to the backports.

FYI, there is absolutely nothing we can do about that, it is the feature
policy for Kubuntu, and happens to a lot of other applications too who
do not release at the same time as Kubuntu does. And that's what the
backports are for: backporting newer versions of applications.

If you don't want to get the newer package from the backports, you will
have to wait for Karmic Koala aka Kubuntu 9.10 to be released.
