Well this is another issue, I suspect most users who listen to
classical music would prefer to also have separate "Composers" and
"Conductors" menus in parallel with the artist menus. It would be
better to have separate menus for composers and conductors and instead
have the option to hide them if you are only listening to pop music
where composers/conductors aren't used much. As I've understood
classical music listeners currently have to work around this by using
strange tagging because SBS works as it does. Of course, classical
music is not just about separate conductors/composers menus there is a
lot of other things missing to make classical music browsing a good
experience.
