And a bit insulting, too. I think you underestimate smart playlists. They are not merely tools to string together random music tracks.

You have a database in your hands, why not use it? I think people who only listen to albums are a bit old school. They've listened to albums all their lives and continue doing so on their Squeezebox. They're missing out, IMO. Either that, or they listen to their music in certain way, like you pointed out, and they have no need for smart playlists. To me, the main use of smart playlists is listening music in the background while I do something else, like working or reading or whatever. -- Nostromo ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Nostromo's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=6322 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=29368 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
