OK, this is seriously starting to make me drink.  I figure the problem *has* 
to be that we are now forced to use playlists and I don't have any playlists 
set up.  So, I dutifully go through and select a bunch of songs -> Menu -> 
Playlist Options -> Save to New Playlist -> name it "My First Playlist" -> 
OK.

Go to the tree view, scroll down the first level to "Playlists", there's "My 
First Play List" with all my selected songs....YAYYYY!!!!!!  -> Select My 
First Play List -> Replace All and start listening.....YAYYYYY!!!! x 2

I then reboot (the acid test), go to Media Library -> Play Music ->  "You 
haven't selected any tracks to play" -> "Are you #%%@^%# kidding me?" -> Go 
to first level of tree view (which is also never remembered, you have to 
reselect your last view *every* time you start listening to music) -> 
Scroll down to "Playlists", "My First Playlist" -> "** Empty Playlist!! 
**" -> "Are you #%%@^%# kidding me?" x 2

Has MythMusic actually been reduced to such a level that it is actually this 
clumsy and unusable?  It can't even do tasks as simple as save a playlist or 
remember your previous selections across reboots....or provide the method to 
do so simply enough that a professional IT admin can't even figure it out? 
I mean if you're going to force playlists down our throats, wouldn't it be 
nice if you could actually create and save one.....and have it stick with 
more than just the name?
