This should be optional...

btw, some things about MytMusic that come into my mind when stumbling
across this mailinglist. Some of these might be nice to add to MyMu. I
don't have a running system though.

- Music rating, take a look at http://www.RoboDJ.org/
It's still a pretty experimental system but it works quite right. I'm
unsure if MyMu uses the same approach for ratings.

- Music rating/recommendation, http://www.Audioscrobbler.com/
This system keeps track of the songs you play and computes a recommendation
on that, based on other users ratings. I know that most linux users are a
bit picky about such "spyware", but I think it's usefull. 

- Music retagging/renaming, http://www.MusicBrainz.org/
This is a system that analyses your music and does an educated guess on
what song it might be. In stead of renaming you might also move/symlink the
incorrect name in(to) a 'old-names'-dir or something. Some people might not
like retagging.
