Mmmm, looked like it was going to warm up a bit there... the reason I posted this was because of a "debate" in the "slimserver 7.0 features" thread. Some posters were insistent that slimserver without smart playlists is a waste of space, others wondering what the fuss was about because they're not that important. Now we have over 50 answers we can see a pattern (granted the bias inherent in asking registered users of this forum). There are indeed two distinct groups of users, roughly equal in number. The "old school" ones who mainly listen to albums, or who at least are satisfied with relatively simple playlist facilities. And the "ipod generation" who want to be helped to find interesting new ways of listening to music. The main thing I wanted to achieve was to help both groups understand that the other group exists, and shouldn't be dismissed as freaks. Hopefully we've done that. Thanks to all who voted and commented.
