Brad, you can stop dreaming ;) MythMusic also has "smart" playlists. Just hit the
menu inside MythMusic and you can set up playlists based on criteria
where the contents will change as your library changes. I use this and
the ratings (similar to how I used iTunes) to create and play my personal "favorites".<br clear="all"><br>
