Bug Description
With a large amount of music (and thus possibly a lot of genres) you can get a very wide genre view which can be hard to navigate on desktop and leaves huge blank space below. See screenshot.
Perhaps the recent played and genres should be multiple lines when window is expanded.

I think the general pattern of scrolling horizontally by flicking the mouse is less than optimal on a desktop. If horizontal scrollbars are eventually introduced, perhaps the best thing to do, in general, would be to scale the size of the items in this view with the height of the app to avoid needless whitespace. This doesn't alone solve the slight discomfort of flicking left and right with the mouse, however.
