Allmusic.com has undergone a redesign. I've already heard that there are non-IE and Non-windows browser issues, but more importantly, the entry on me has lost all but my Lothars credit!
Buffista Music II: Wrath of Chaka Khan
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.
I haven't been able to get Allmusic to load all day. Now I know why--their servers are suffering cosmic retribution because they were mean to Jon.
edit: so far, i've only tried Mozilla on my iBook.
No joy with Firebird.
Yep. I've heard that the new site doesn't work with Mozilla/Firebird. Idiots.
Yeah, I hate the new allmusic interface. It looks like they organized a crack team of experts in dambuilding to create it.
What's weird is that it's gone live even though it doesn't seem to be finished. I just checked the "What's New" page in the new Help Center and got a page of "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit" etc. Idiots.
IE's market share is actually declining for the first time ever, and Mozilla/Firebird are increasing their market share. A dumb time to switch to an IE-only site. (But maybe they intend to support Mozilla/Firebird/Opera, and just haven't gotten it working yet....)
edit: I just got it to load in Mozilla/OS X.

Clear Channel owns it now, and you're one o' them pinko types, so it's not surprising. </lying through my teeth>

You would think they'd get the bugs worked out *before* they went live.
Huh. So the Lothars are "followers" of Brian Eno....
I actually have never heard any Lothars. I should remedy that....
