--------------------
I think that the Biber mix looks more successful than the Debussy,
though both have some pretty wild choices in there (Patrick Street? Jan
Garbarek?) I was pleased to see Takemitsu and Silvestrov in the Debussy
mix, but a bit puzzled at the number of piano pieces.
I haven't played around with MIP's settings really, so this is roughly
the default behaviour; but if you find the mixes are including stuff too
far off the track, it can be toned down (but this is something I've
never tried so I don't know how well it works).
I'd be more interested in Genius if I could actually run it live on my
iPod; but it seems the most I can do is to copy Genius playlists that
have been created on my PC. That's not nearly dynamic enough for me.
