It's very confusing when you click "Show All" on Albums and you a get clutter of singles and Albums especially when you click on "Show All" from Songs and you only see songs. I get that singles are a type of release but my brain is setup to expect Albums when I click "Show All" that's on the Albums row. I think the are 2 possibly better options:

1) Have the drop down pre-selected to Albums and I can change it to All or Singles
2) Change the drop down to a link that says "Go to Singles" and separate Albums and Singles into two sections with Albums on top

Hi @lukuskywalker 

Thanks for the feedback! 

I understand what you mean about the singles showing up in albums. I've always found that an interesting choice that music labels consider these release as albums. Your post status has been updated Open Ideas. 

Thanks for stopping by the Ideas Board.

I'd be on board with this as well. If I'm going into Albums it's because I want to listen to a lengthy album. Singles should be separated out into their own category or sub-category.

100% agree. An album is not the same thing as a single, so they should not be treated as the same thing. 

Since the moderator's comment implies that there will be no help from the record labels in fixing this mess, I think there should just be a filter that lets you choose to hide albums with fewer than "X" music tracks.
