Its not very intuitive. I’ve got loads of music and want the splash screen to show my stuff. I don’t even like Usher but that’s what confronts me when I open the app. I can browse for my music but the search doesn’t focus on my machine. Cover art work doesn’t show either. And even though I’m logged in with my live account posting this doesn’t recognize me and wants me to fill in a form. It all feels amateurish.
