I think I know what is going on, but I haven't completely traced the effects. It has to do with delays between downloads using the content server. More than 30 seconds *might* trigger the problem. That "might" comes from Android's highly complex application life cycle.

The problem seems to be related to being looking at first letters of a category when you start the content server. If I am right then hitting the back button might clear the situation and redisplay the library. It also might cause CC to exit, and the next restart might show the library.

I am making a few changes that will prevent the situation I found from happening. We will see once I make the next release, probably in the next week.
