Logina few minor bugs I've come across

1. When a game item gets added from amazon database, it defaults its platform to PC rather than PC Games. This can be easily edited, but I think if a listal entry already exists (say Half-Life 2) and its listed as PC Games, as soon as someone else adds that game thru amazon rather than Local Database, it overwrites the platform back to PC.
2. Going back to why I prefer PC Games rather than PC, if items are labeled as PC platform, and you click on them from your Game Overview page, it says 'cannot find items'. so to avoid that 'bug' and to keep all pc games under same 'platform', I'd like to stick with only one - PC Games - although this bug should probably be addressed regardless. it shouldn't say 'cannot find items' when there are thousands of 'PC' labeled items in the database.
and the other 2 are more preference changes that I think are important, but may not necessarily be considered bugs.
3. search feature should always default back to Local Database. if you use amazon for one game not in database yet, and then later on you search for another game, it still looks for amazon results. I'd think it would be best that every new search should default back to local database and only if they can't find the item, do they toggle it to do an amazon search.
4. click on GAMES in search box, type in name of a game, then click on the game. notice the search box is back to movies default. I think while user is in logged in, the search default should stay to what the last choice they made. trying to add lots of games or music by searching each one gets annoying, always having to toggle it back out of 'movies' default.
cheers...
