In addition to searching, we need a way to just browse the collection. Maybe something like flipping through a CD collection, where you see a cover image at a time and can page through. Maybe a grid of cover-image thumbnails.
Whatever the design, accommodate the rest of these music-listening scenarios:
[x] I have a specific song/album in mind I want to listen to right now (search)
[ ] Let's see, what should I put on? What have I got? (view list of artists... for a start)
[ ] What was that one song by $ARTIST? I know it was toward the end of $ALBUM... (view album track listing).
[ ] What was that one song by $ARTIST? I forget what album it's on, or maybe I don't have the album, just the track (view everything by artist).
The backend work here is trivial plumbing, mostly a UI problem.
