The indexing / search is still all wrong.
Why isn't there an accurate Opus / K. / Hob. / BWV / D. / WoO / etc search on any of these "classical" platforms? Why can't they keep the movements of a piece together? Why can't they make it easy to search by concert hall, conductor, year, soloist, label, live vs studio, etc?
The hipster techie kids at Apple have No Idea what a mature listener of Western Art Music wants.
From the article:
> Composer Essentials are greatest-hits assemblages of movements and arias—rush-hour classical radio without traffic and weather. This approach defeats the point of listening to, say, Gustav Mahler: if you have time only for the Adagietto of his Fifth Symphony or for the last seven minutes of his Eighth, you might as well skip him altogether. And who qualifies as essential?
