This is also correct, I believe that we identified all of the use
cases that we need for the new API in the UDS session.

- - getting all music
- - getting all artists
- - getting all songs from one artist
- - getting all covers from one artist
- - getting all albums
- - getting all songs for a given album
- - getting all genres
- - getting all songs of a given genre

Thanks,

Andrew
