Why is this important? I really not getting the benefit of this.


I assume so you could filter and sort by broad genres and then smaller sects for example...


Superhero Movies
- DC
- Marvel
- Other

Holiday Movies
- Christmas
- Halloween

this way you can pull up all your holiday movies if you wanted to, or just the Christmas ones...

@ Pantheon

The other reason to use tags over custom genres is that you can check as many tags as you need, whereas genres you're limited to 5.
If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.
