[QUOTE="dir, post: 518095, member: 24485"] I find it interesting that more than once in this thread, MP dev's voice the fact that there won't be any changes done to MP in the near future for the music section. Great, no problem. But it seems that they're trying to shut down discussion on this. I don't see this thread as a request to the MP developers at all. I see it as a request for someone to create a plugin. The MP devs don't need to be involved at all. And if the discussion centres on areas that conflict or go away from how MP's music section works, great. Let it! MP Devs don't need concern themselves with this thead at all. The solution isn't going to come from there, it's going to come from a plugin author like fforde. I find it strange that MP Devs seem so determined to argue against changes to the Music capabilities when they don't even need to get involved! In all likelihood, discussions like this thread will motivate some user out there to create a plugin that does something new and creative. That's evolution. It's up to the rest of us to help continue discussion by expressing our own visions, issues, and ideas. For me personally, I love the coverflow idea. All I want is to see my albums, select an album or track to listen to, or just select a 'mood' based on a seed album, artist, or song and let the software decide what songs to play. I'm not much into creating playlists (too much effort and I rarely use the same list twice, unless they can be randomized; I hate repetition!). The only other thing I want to do is queue up tracks/albums to play. I love the mock-up screenshots. I'm happy to use apps to tag my music as well as they can be tagged. I'm a visual person, so I want to see the album cover, have a slick coverflow visual, and see other info on the album/artist/track. [/QUOTE]
