fetch data from it and feed them into a generic model

I have pushed the branch to the repository as genericModel .
I plan to complete the generic model while keeping it asynchronous and not blocking. After that, I plan to work on the user interface to allow basic genre browsing and more if time permits.
Will the other models eventually be migrated to use only this model? Can you explain the plan?
As a wish, browsing by year is also a nice to have feature.

I will add it. I had somehow missed it.
I would like to remove a lot of duplicated code in the existing models by a more generic one.
If I succeed, we should have a generic model that is also not blocking. I hope to have something less complex than D11167.
