The grouping of the tracks detracts A LOT from the ability to gage what my readers are into. I agree with the sentiment of Lise above. I agree with the person who said it would be nice to keep the old alphabetical listing of blogs in addition to the new format. Honestly, this is not a good upgrade- it is a downgrade. Trying to remember them all will not happen. My entire listening history is gone and I’ve been on here since the beginning so I had a lot of songs I loved to go back and listen to on a daily basis. My Listening History and Obsessions are also missing. Additionally, with the new update, the Firefox “Save File” plug-in no longer works with the player. Much preferred the older, smaller player. However, I am not a fan of the new player – at ALL. If you come here as a listener rather than a blogger it can only be a good thing surely?Ī fan of the slightly sleeker look. Haven’t experienced any of the bugs other people are reporting either but perhaps I’m just lucky… Anyway just wanted to say I like it, looks clean and crisp and I love the grouped duplications. I’m usually the first to whinge when my favourite websites have a redesign (most of us hate change) but I like what you’ve done here. Can’t wait to see how the new features help me find more music that I I would like the play time and volume control visible without mouseover, please.Īlso, songs are repeating in Chrome, I’m going crazy! Guess I’ll be “bug testing” all day tomorrow. Thanks for the hard work, gang! Not mentioned above, I may be most excited that the site now works on the iPhone & iPad. I like the update ! The website is a lot cleaner, great job! Only thing I wish you all would add is the ability to make playlists of songs. I look forward to all future enhancements to this already stellar website. To all the people at Hype Machine, job well done! I really enjoy the new and improved website and have already been tinkering with the new settings. Play around, explore the site, and please do let us know if anything is not working correctly. We’re excited to share these new features with you.
