Content and metadata changes

We’re improving the way we handle music metadata, which means you should experience more relevant search results and less misplaced music over the coming weeks when browsing through the catalog. As part of our ongoing negotiations with rights holders, we have also pruned the catalog. We’re sorry if this means your favorite artist is missing. Our long-term goal is to have all the music.

Any numbers to offer? How many artists/tracks before the prune and how many after?

 
 

mmm, prunes

 
 

The alpha-channel bug (causing transparent components to be pitch black) that appeared when running in Wine is gone!

 
 

Pruning sucks.

 
 

Oh noes! I think it might be this change that removed "my" <a href="http://open.spotify.com/user/huvet/playlist/7iTUBYcgqcl1rUjNW6xERE">Ray Charles</a> disc :( "The selected song is not available in your country". *cries* /Emil Stenström

 
 

Also, ehem, how do I add links in my comments? :)
