RE: Multiple playlists & virtual albums

I think they are the same thing and are better handled as virtual albums as tracks/discs/mp3s can be dragged into it to create a virtual album and then the album played as if it were a 'CD'...

By getting rid of playlists per say would reduce the number of windows that are open at one time - making it possible to run the system easier on a lower resolution display such as a TV.

By enabling these virtual albums to be in turn used in further 'albums' allows a nice nesting. It would be possible to create a R.E.M. favourites virtual album for example and then add that 'disc' into other albums...

As an aside is there any way of marking paticular tracks not to be played... There seems to be a ratings window, but it doesn't work. I would prefer a simple addition to the right click menu which adds a 'don't play' option. When pressed over a album the album is grayed out and will not be played. When pointing at an individual track, only the individual track will be skipped.

Also it would be nice to be able to reorganize the tracks in the virtual and actual albums by dragging and dropping.

Just my 2c
