Seperate categories into more types

  1. Currently, when a request returns information about a movie, it usually contains many "<category>" nodes. These categories include Genres, Ratings, Movie Studios, Age ranges, and other miscellaneous categorizations such as "Dramas based on best selling novels". This is fine if you want to show this much detail, but what if you only want to show the genre(s)? You don't know which item is the genre because the "scheme" attribute for all of them (with the exception of the rating) is the URI for "genre". Can you please provide more category classifications so that we can choose which categories to show and where?

    Thanks,

    Brian

    We're going to allow things like genre-based search and browse in our next major release so we'll need to help you guys understand the hierarchy a bit better.
