Just got this from a friend who runs the whole AMG enterprise......so here's
what they are saying officially right now,so you all know (btw, I can' t
get any of our Windows machines to work with this yet, let alone my
MACS......it's like being a drug addict looking for a fix. Give me my AMG
back!)
Peace,
Bruce

SUPPORT OF NON-IE FOR WINDOWS BROWSERS
Optimizing a site of allmusic's complexity and size for all browsers and
operating systems is no small feat. This isn't a simple "brochure-ware" site
of static pages. While we would love to optimize the AMG sites for all
browsers and all operating systems, we simply don't have the necessary
resources to do so. Despite some users flattering comparison of our site
with that of Google, Amazon and Yahoo!, we are a small company with limited
resources. So, we had to pick the most widely used browser by our users
(over 87%) to optimize the site for and then work on compatibility issues
with the other major browsers as we go forward.
We are first concentrating on fixing some compatibility issues with the
Mozilla browsers, which are mainly visual, not functional. The main Mozilla
problem is a glitch in how tables are displayed. We're hoping to have this
fixed in the near future. We will also be working to fix some compatibility
problems with Safari (Mac).
We ask for your patience as we work on these issues.
