One major problem is easy to identify but hard to fix!
Since virtually all collections of recorded sound are held by libraries
and catalogued by, or under the supervision of, people who majored in
Library Science (or hold graduate degrees therein)...
The collections are catalogued using systems and/or programs created
for keeping track of collections of printed matter!
This is akin to using a system/program intended for doing some sort
of specialized and sophisticated calculation...to figure out your
income tax return!
Feh!...
