A needed improvment for the Zune Marketplace
One little annoyance about the Zune Marketplace that I have seen more and more lately, is the lack of uniformity with Artists. I have downloaded music thROUGH the Zune Marketplace (ZMP) lately, and the lack of uniformity is annoying. The more music you have on your player, the less duplicate artists you want.
I downloaded "VooDoo Child" by Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble. Now, what annoyed me is that the data had the artist as "Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble", but album artist as "Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble". Why is this? What is the point to having "and" spelled out in one part of the song data, with it being represented by the symbol the next?
This also occured with "Name of the Game" by Crystal Method. The arists appears as "The Crystal Method" with the album artist as "Crystal Method".
I am liking the marketplace enough for me to be using it to download music, instead of buying CDs. Its there, its easy to find, and it works. Simply, it works. While I understand that this is probably on the lower parts of the list for improvements, it is something that can be easily done, as the team who posts content can just make sure they have uniformity with the artists.
