rottenwool > discogs.com isn't as good nor as complete as AMG.

you're right, IE works, netscape/mozilla doesn't. amg & discogs are both good sites used for different purposes, and both seem to have had major upgrades recently.

So far, it's a piece of trash. Blue trash. It's slow, comes up with many errors (though this is probably only temporary)... and not as user friendly. Who's bright idea was it to force you to click on ''reviews'', then click on the review you want to read, and then click on ''show more'' when you want to actually read the review? Fucknuts.
The stars are also miniscule. Sometimes I can't tell the difference between a half-star and an empty one.

btw ie on macs is just crazy and crappy. i (and everyone else) has a lot of trouble ensuring compatability with that browser unless you have a mac sitting beside you while coding. it is a compleatly different codebase that win ie. which is strange.. ie in generall is such a mess. anyone who creates standard compliant sites will know how often you have to use little hacks and work arounds just 'spoon feed' ie into displaying things as it should. ive heard people proclaim that ie/mac is the most standards compliant browser yet. whatever. i hate ie.... oh....uh..when was css1.0 standardized? 8 years ago? and for what reason has microsoft failed to impliment it correctly in their products?

Aww, isn't that cute? You now have to pay to get the all the information about an artist. Well that's just superb.
And now the old AMG is down. Forever. I feel like a close friend just died.

Somene told me, and I quote and paste-
''You now have to pay for premium member to see album awards and chart positions and "expanded album/artist info". Blegh. I guess it's not that big of a deal. I'll probably become a member just because.''
I can't be arsed to surf this buggy wreck until the bugs are sorted out. Can anyone confirm this?

They made the information more removed. I liked before I could just search, and it would bring up all the artists releases. Now they have all these stupid tabs. Blah. Fucking idiots.

Kind of like the new Discogs. It's such a bother to select what you want to search for. I used to have no trouble just searching and getting what I wanted, without using that stupid menu thing on the left.

Tabs for bio, discog etc = retarded (especially when it's a small artist with no boi, so a search just comes up with a blank space on the main page)
"Read more..." option on bios, reviews etc = retarded. Can't I just fucking read it?
Urgh. Neither of them of big problems but they make it a thousand times more awkward to use. I used to spend ages every day just looking around the site, reading reviews etc. I've not done that once since the new design. It's just so awful. :(

You click to rread the rreview of an album... then you have to click 'rread morre' to rread the rreview in full, then once you've clicked 'rread morre' the trrack listing fucks off.
