Where are the Jazz and Jazz-Pop listings?

OK, so it makes perfect sense that Taxi gets the majority of listings for the music with the largest audiences and commercial upside. Obviously, jazz and jazz-pop are going to be at or near the bottom of the totem pole. But from what I can see since becoming a member 4-5 months ago, Taxi opportunities in these genres are virtually non-existent. A jazzer can find some instrumental opportunities maybe, but if you're a songwriter, forget it. Shouldn't Taxi be making some effort to develop leads with labels and producers who work with artists in the Norah Jones ballpark? Diana Krall? Melody Gardot? Madeleine Peyroux? Lizz Wright? Tierney Sutton? Beth Rowley? Cabaret and jazz-pop are alive and well, but you wouldn't know it from the Taxi listings.
