Ratings and reviews

This really needs an easier way to filter songs. Deselecting every category you don't want is kind of tedious, especially if you want to only select one or two categories. Instead of having it filter in real time as you select/deselect, it should filter upon finishing all of your selecting. This would greatly improve that process. Instead of waiting for the list to repopulate with each selection.

This app has some great features! It is tricky to learn what it does, but play around with it and you will find a lot of wonderful features! You got check out the bending tool that shows your progress as you bend each note! Taught me how to bend!
