Right now it's still 'easy' (with a 2 year old kid). I personally don't need favorites, so favorites are used to have fast access to all important kids albums. I browse my full library and don't care yet about 10-20 kids albums inbetween. Thinking into the future (and being pragmatic): I guess I'd just need two separate libraries. One with the kids albums and one with my own (+wifes) albums. Two separate folders would be enough for maintenance - if they just showed as "My Music Stefan", "My Music Son" in the menu it would be good enough (no user profiles needed, where one item is hidden based on the user or controller used). With Windows file shares I could even manage access, so that my son beiing 10years old could only manipulate/extend 'his' library. Probability of having the same album in both folders is pretty low I guess (I expect our tastes to differ very much, at least as long as he is living with us). As I don't want for user profiles which would hide stuff, my son could browse in my main library (and I could browse in his) anyway. If we really want to have the same album in 'our' menus, then well - just copy it over and have it redundant in both. This would only count for <10% albums if at all. All this could be achieved with the multilibrary plugin already today, so this plugin in it's simplest form (separation by folder), is all I'd need from Logitech to get a big improvement for my daily family life. -- bluegaspode Did you know: *'SqueezePlayer' (www.squeezeplayer.com)* will stream all your music to your Android device.
