[QUOTE="Terra, post: 1051962, member: 97366"] At first I was curious about this thread because of the title but the discussion which came up here really is the most interesting part, although maybe misplaced in a thread about MP :) I can only agree with fforde and dir and also noticed this, right now for me MP2 is a Tech-Demo to see what the Framework can do. And I even can't test it anymore because it cannot find my shared folders. I was a developer in the past and I am still doing some smaller things, at my work I am confronted with a lot of requests regarding business processes which people would like to have however which sometimes seem stupid, not logical and most of the times to not fit in the framework the developers have created for the software and they need to rewrite a lot just to get very small requests right. In the end it is always important what the users want and understand what they need. The important things are to know what are the USE-CASES of the people using it. e.g. It is nice to have a library of all media which I can manipulate with views and change the layout of the grid and things, however most people just want to see the new movies they have just added, and they want it out of the box. If I need to go through 5 subfolders and guess where it is I can just startup windows explorer and double click on it because it is easier and less frustrating. And Moving Pictures provides just this user experience out of the box. The same with MP TV-Series. [/QUOTE]
