Thanks for asking.  Here is a quick & dirty list.  To see how these
might might look on the actual interface, reference iTunes,
MediaMonkey, Media Player.

1. List the library in its entirety on one screen, with sortable
columns for Title, Album, Artist, Genre, Length, etc.  MediaMonkey also
shows the source path as a column, which I think is a major bonus for
large libraries.

2. When searching, use the same screen as above, narrowing the results
as the user enters characters.

3. Add a new playlist without affecting the currently active playlist,
and eliminate the need to explicitly save the new playlist.

4. Drag (or right-click-add) songs to the new playlist.  Sequentially
number the songs in a playlist (this simplifies re-ordering on long
lists.)  As a side feature, make all playlists always visible so a song
can be easily moved to any playlist.

5.  Allow any playlist to be displayed and edited without affecting the
active (playing) playlist.  Again, just auto-save instead of requiring
an explicit step.

6.  Allow tag editing (right-click on Properties, Info, etc.) for all
major formats.  Filename editing would also be cool -- useful for
fixing typos, etc.


These are the big ones for me. I also have some suggestions for
secondary improvements, but these features would turn me into a raving
evangelist.

Thanks again.
Mike
