In praise of the latest iTunes
I should preface this with two important facts: One, I'm a librarian by training, if not by profession. As such, I get weirdly obsessive about weird classification and categorization things. Two, ... OK, well, I forgot what the second thing was.
But anyway. Since the invention of ASCII, computers have improperly sorted numerals so they appear before the alphabet. That's wrong. And by extension iTunes has been wrong since its invention, because it always put bands like 10,000 Maniacs ahead of bands like a-Ha and Air.
Not anymore, though. With the most recent update, iTunes sorts your music library properly, putting bands, songs and albums with numerals at the start of their title at the end. Yay, Apple!
As for everyone out there who's complaining that they suddenly can't find half their music or something, shut up and quitcherbitchin.
