The relevancy search does not necessarily serve you well in this regard either. For example, if you wanted to find "Carol King" but only remembered her last name, searching for "king" puts her in about 275th place. If you remembered only her first name you'd find her in 114th place. Even if you enter "Carol K" she come in at 111. I don't see how "relevancy" is ever useful for these types of searches. What you would want is a keyword or key-string search by artist, track or album. It seems that Rhapsody only offers a keyword search across all of these however, without filtering. Obviously this is a Rhapsody issue, and to me appears to be an error in judgement on how users search for music and the best way to handle search results. -- Hamlet ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hamlet's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10579 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=34386 _______________________________________________ squeezenetwork mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/squeezenetwork
