If you want to modify a model, use the
:meth:`~mopidy.models.ImmutableObject.copy` method. It accepts keyword
arguments for the parts of the model you want to change, and copies the rest of
the data from the model you call it on. Example::
>>> from mopidy.models import Track
>>> track1 = Track(name='Christmas Carol', length=171)
>>> track1
Track(artists=[], length=171, name='Christmas Carol')
>>> track2 = track1.copy(length=37)
>>> track2
Track(artists=[], length=37, name='Christmas Carol')
>>> track1
Track(artists=[], length=171, name='Christmas Carol')
