Well, just in terms of the user-experience, I suppose. It would be nicer if
the app presented the user with the list, rather than the user having to
visit MusicBrainz to retrieve the list manually. Even slicker would be to
have the app choose the server programatically, using the locale settings.

But... c'est la vie. I'm sure there are more important things on the
wish-list.
