If you want to call it “policy”, then yes, I would say it is more of a policy issue than a “can’t be done” issue.
Of course, it would be technically possible to improve the Edit Multiple system for Artists and Musicians, allowing the adding, removing of persons, instead of replacing the entire list.
However, that would be quite in an investment of development (several weeks easily), by a developer who has already switched to work on Connect full time. It would also be a risky update, possible generating bug reports and bug fix updates for weeks afterwards.
That is just not an investment that is feasible for us, to a desktop version that is obviously “on the way out”, while the feature IS already available in our main and recommended web-based platform Music Connect. Even the CLZ Music mobile app already has a better Edit Multiple tool.
We are planning to keep maintaining the software (for now), and keep it compatible with CLZ Core, CLZ Cloud, CLZ Scanner, possible Windows updates, etc… But It is unlikely that there will ever be a another feature update for the Music Collector desktop software.
But you already knew that, right?
I mean, if you take a look at our release log for Music Collector:
you’ll find that the last actual feature update we did was in Feb 2022, over 2 years ago. All updates after that were just compatibility or maintenance updates.
