new AMG website design www.allmusic.com
WHY do sites feel the need to "improve" themselves? first hotmail, then the org, now AMG..... it just fucking ruins it. if it ain't broke, don't fix it  "Awards are like hemorrhoids. Sooner or later, every asshole gets one." | |

You'll eventually get used to it. This post not for the wimp contingent. All whiny wusses avert your eyes. | |

I hate it. It's slower, and much harder to navigate through. Reviews are hard to access, stars are too small, artist profiles are just poorly laid out in general. It's subscription based too now, and saturated with ads. sigh. "Knowledge is preferable to ignorance. Better by far to embrace the hard truth than a reassuring faith.

It's getting better as it goes on. They asked me to be a beta tester, and I'm giving lots of feedback. Some of it just takes getting used to, I think, but the search engines are pulling up weird results. | |

Hopefully , while they're at it, they can get rid of some of their older, poorly written, & error filled reviews.... "...all you need ...is justa touch...of mojo hand....." | |

it's wak, it shouldn't be that high tech, the old one allowed you to get straight to the point. | |

I agree. I don't like having to click on individual tabs to get to everything. Really annoying. Maybe this stuff will get worked out and it'll be as good as it was before.  | |

I don't know why, but the search doesn't work properly for me, even when I'm logged in as a user. When I click on an artist's name or a CD title, nothing happens.
 This site's gone straight down the shitter.[This message was edited Wed Jul 14 15:01:00 2004 by VoicesCarry] | |

This site's gone straight down the shitter.Yeah, it's really screwy. I wasn't a big fan of the look of the old site, but as far as functionality goes, it was A-okay with me. I'm getting a lot of errors, and server time outs, etc. If I weren't addicted to that site, it wouldn't be a big deal! | |

The thing is, they had reviews of quite a few obscurities all in one place, so I didn't have to go trolling around millions of fan pages to find them. Damn, I'm pissed off. NEWER doesn't mean BETTER in this case, that's for sure. Can I give them 0 stars? | |

I've done so a lot in the past few days. With stuff like this, they assume you like it unless they hear otherwise. | |

It tottally sucks. It took me several tries to login(why do we have to login?!).It's really slow & the layout is confusing at first.Why fix it if it aint broke? Bring back the old site please.Is that enough whining?  | |

What I do like, the 30 second audio samples, but then again I haven't got them to work just yet. | |

Yep, it sucks. I got on there today for the first time in about six months and at first, I thought I was on the wrong site. They should have left it alone. | |

doesn't get any better with repeated visits "Awards are like hemorrhoids. Sooner or later, every asshole gets one." | |

But they do have snippets of every song from "The Work". Don't know if that's good or bad though. | |
