So either you listen to albums or you shuffle your whole collection?
You never shuffle by genre or by artist?
If you do shuffle by genre or by artist, I think you are doing
something that is functionally identical to smart playlists. It may not
be called a smart or dynamic playlist, but it does the same thing: the
computer gives you a list of the tracks, based on the criteria you
specified (genre, artist...) So, in a sense, you're using smart
playlists without even knowing it.

I do know that it's there and that it's smart -- but I don't care
about it, because I don't use it. Not saying that it's a bad thing,
just that I don't need it. Now I certainly would appreciate an
integrated Last.FM/Pandora type of system that used local tracks
instead of Internet radio, as my bandwidth is not so good and Internet
radio tends to be unreliable. But, and this is a big one, it is not
important to me. I would appreciate it if it were there and probably
even use it once or twice a month, but I'm not going to ditch the
Slimserver/Squeezeboxes because it's not there.
