Ouch. This really hurts. You have an advisory board already... 80,000+ strong. You really, really should listen to them first. And you should have held off announcing this bs until after you at least gave us the next Release Candidate. You likely just made a large chunk of already angry artists completely furious. Faux pas. By posting this, you have not helped strengthen your case that you give a rat's ass about the artists that you built this little empire of yours upon. And clearly the features these thousands of artists are begging for have been put on the farthest back burner.
Here is some advice: Get your head out of The Cloud and get your ass back in the kitchen.
EDIT: Have had a major change of heart - since update announcement.
