iOS10: The Music App's Two Bad Changes

Hello guys!

I have an iPhone 6 and recently upgraded to iOS10. The iMessage changes are fun, but I wish I never changed.

I have a sizable music library (over 2,000 songs), and much of my time in the Music App. There have been two changes in this iteration of iOS which have really made the experience worse for me:

1. Music forgetting how I like to sort my Music Library: For instance, I like sorting my music by "Artist." Music used to remember this, and kept this sorting even if I closed the app. Now, I have to re-specify the sorting I prefer every time I re-open the app.

2. No option to sort albums in chronological order: Now when I select an artist, all their albums are sorted alphabetically. I am all for the OPTION to sort by more than reverse-chronogical order, but why take away the option to sort chronologically? This is very frustrating for artists like Michael Jackson, who have over five decades of albums.

iPhone 6, iOS 10
