Bugreport for Nokia Music PC Client

Nokia Music Cannot Handle Large Music Libraries on Windows Vista 64bit

I have a large music library (approx. 5000 songs) and Nokia Music is making my life very difficult.
To play my music I usually use Songbird, but I also have my library available in iTunes and Windows Media Player.

Sadly Songbird only pretends to support my Nokia 5800, iTunes doesn't care and Windows Media Player just adds it as a new device every time it sees the phone connect.

That leaves me with only Nokia Music to turn to.
This is unfortunate because Nokia Music is pathetic: It crashes when it attempts to create an index of my library (In fact, judging by it's current CPU and Memory usage the GUI crashes and the Indexing continues in the background), it accesses some poor alternative to gracenote and recognises relatively few albums, and although it does have a feature which pulls album information and artwork, it relies on the user personally checking its results for every song! Trying to do my whole library would take days!

Please tell me there is a 64-bit beta, or an alternative or something! I can't take it anymore!

I agree!

although i use windows vista 32bit version, Nokia Music has crashed a few times while using it. I have resorted back to using my GOP Windows Media Player. My biggest problem with this software which is all i need it to do is transfer music to my mobile (N97) and have the album cover art display but for the past 4 years or so since i had my N95 and now N97, this issue has remain unsolved. I also have a library that is approx 5000 songs.

Can someone from Nokia respond. I am willing to talk on the phone to help resolve this issue.
