Each audio collection can be navigated by categories based on their
ID3 tags. The category menus are designed to facilitate easy location of
songs, artists, or albums form a large audio library. A typical audio
collection can contain hundred or thousands of songs. By using the
category menus, you can find what you want in a few quick steps. The
categories include: song title, artists, albums, artists/albums, genres,
and playlists. These categories are the same as those used by most
popular audio managers, such as iTunes, AudioMatch, MediaPlayer, or
WinAmp.
