I use Zap when I stumble across a song that doesn't play correctly - eg. if a 
song skips due to a bad rip from a CD, or if the tags aren't correct.  As I 
mainly listen to music using the SB from the bedroom at night, by the time I 
get up in the morning, I've forgotten what music I was going to sort out!

I could never decide if I liked the functionality that it removes the track 
from the music library.  Sometimes I wanted to use it to remind me to look into 
something, but the track would still play okay, and thus I wouldn't want to zap 
it until it had finished playing.

How about the following, as an enhancement request, to enhance the 
functionality of the add button, so it's not just for zapping songs.

Press-and-hold add button on a track selected in the now playing list.  SB then 
asks what you want to do - top line of the display would read "Add to...", the 
second line would allow you to select a destination.  The default destination 
would be "Zapped tracks" which would work as per current functionality.  Other 
options could include other configurable markers, such as "Bad Tags", "Bad 
music", which would be implemented as playlists like the Zapped music playlist. 
 In fact, it could also be used to add the track to an existing playlist or a 
new Playlist.
