      Trying to add the Apple Digital Masters series to a release will sometimes result in a 504 gateway timeout (I assume due to how large that series is). In the stable release, this would result in the ‘Sleepy Server’ thing, but on the beta release an alert saying ‘An error occurred: SyntaxError: Unexpected token '<', "<!DOCTYPE "... is not valid JSON’.

      I believe this is because the server returns this HTML response
