Current music: N.Rimsky-Korsakov - Ii. The Tsarina And Her Son Afloat In The Cask The iTunes world is just biased against classical users, isn't it? I don't know what you're using to blog with, but whatever it is, just like almost every other program that links to music, the programmer never thought about classical music; you have the track and the composer (which is progress, unless you have the composer in the artist slot), but doesn't include the actual work.
I use XJournal, which exhibits precisely the same behaviour, and you'll never guess what I did, I wrote a script to get the proper behaviour.
But, damn it, it's trivial. If I can do it, why can't the original programmer?
It's people like them wot causes unrest.
