Most users >will check the first one or two pages and ignore the long tail. > Mostly true. With the most likely results at the top, it doesn't matter as much that there's extra results not of interest further down. That is if performance isn't affected. I don't notice performance issues, as I have a fast server. Scan times? Memory usage? I haven't investigated. On some occasions, I've been interested in how many songs I have with <blah> in the title, so extra results means that the new search is no good for that sort of thing. But I guess Advanced Search can be used. _______________________________________________ beta mailing list beta@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
