So I just found out my favourite Donna Summer album is on AM. Except one grayed out track because Apple Music. But then I realised there's a problem. (Mac OS 10.11 PB4)

Is there a way to resize the track length column? Resizing the window does nothing (well, the titles get even more white space available). I'm not sure if it's the PB4 problem or general Apple Music problem but I haven't noticed it until now.
 
No iPad or iPhone, otherwise I'd have done your test already :( but I'll try to change the view, thanks!

Edit: I don't see how to change the view unfortunately. I'm in the New tab, streaming the album, can't add it to my library because iCloud. I'll see after a restart if Yosemite has the same problem.

It has to be a saved to Playlist on your Mac to do change the view. You can't change (I don't think) the New or For You tabs.

You can add the Playlist or album to Add to My Music and then change it.

That is kind of buggy cutting off the time. Also I see it happening on the year too.

BTW: Donna Summer is from 70s. The one of the 1st creators of DISCO wave. It means: she is old star today. How many times and from how many sources you have got/bought your favourite album of D. Summer? Is this still worth paying every month subscription for that album? If it is one of your fav albums, so why can't you just buy it (pay for it once and forever)?
 
1. I am on a free trial ;)
2. I never bought this album. An ex of mine had it on vinyl, and I kept on playing side B (I wonder how many Macrumors members just went "what's a side B?") because of the first two tracks being absolutely impeccable. I was reminded about the album because one of the For You playlists had a Donna Summer track on it.
3. It's on Spotify.
4. I'm not going to pay for Apple Music unless they REALLY get their act together, whether Donna Summer is there or not.
5. If one day it disappears from all streaming services, I'll buy the CD, of course, as it's much cheaper than a download from iTunes Store.

None of which makes me any wiser as to why Apple Music doesn't display track lengths and numbers correctly. ;)
