My problem with genres is that they are pigeon holes into which music doesn't always fit. Sure, classical is classical and blues is blues, but a lot of good music sits in between genres or completely defies a genre-based categorization. I mean, is it Alternative? Rock? Indie? Alternative Rock? Alternative Indie Rock? Post Alternative Indie Rock?
Apple, please restore the "Hide Genre when browsing" option. Please!
I'm also one of the "specific listeners" ;-)
in RE to genres = customizable categories, nothing is stopping you from doing that except having completely borked genre ID3 tags. And who cares about that?
I'm sure you know how to do it, so I won't explain myself, but get on it, I think it'd be kinda cool at least.
just a lot of work, maybe if you had macros set up to quick add songs to custom categories, it'd be handy.
I'm wondering if you're able to help me out here...
I have a heap of movies (over 200), some of which I have seen and some of which I haven't; and I'd like to add a tab for the movies I have not seen (when in the Grid view).
The "TV Shows" Library (when in the grid view) has a tab called "NEW" (in addition to the GENRES and TV SHOWS tabs); any idea how I can add one for Movies as well?
Cheers,
p.s. and yes! I want to keep all 200 movies!
Another one for you - related but slightly different:
I actually LIKE to view my movies in Grid View or Coverflow by Genre (ok, call me weird but it just works for me).
Most of my movies will fit into a number of different Genres though - for example "Yes Man" fits into both Comedy and Romance genres. The problem is that in the Grid View, I don't just see an two separate Genres for Comedy and Romance with "Yes Man" listed in both - instead I see a single Genre called "Comedy;Romance."
Is there any way to configure iTunes to show the INDIVIDUAL Genres in Grid View rather than combined genres? (Obviously I would prefer not to have to select a single genre for each movie).
Cheers,
David
