I agree that Erland's plugins are fantastic. I had voluntarily contributed more than enough to get a lifetime license even before he started charging. But I'm not interested in rating my tracks, because what I want to hear is highly dependent on my mood, guests, purpose of listening, etc. A terrible song under one circumstance may be perfect in another. I have about 70,000 tracks and I'm only half way ripping my CDs. I often notice very interesting things with random play, and in many cases had I "rated" these interesting things in a different "global" context, I would likely never hear them. p.s. for songs I want to fix (change tag, etc.), I simply move to a "FIX SONG" playlist (using PLAYLIST MANAGER plugin). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ garym's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=17325 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=51929 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
