Re: Re: Web interface prototype

would it be so difficult to stick with what is in the ID3 tag?  How you 
choose to name files is then how it works.  I can't be the only maniac 
on the list who cleans the database of music so it all looks and reds 
nicely whether playing on my computer or in my iPod.

Software players should show the correct info if we send it - at least 
song title.  Ideal would be to see it as if it was playing locally from 
your system.  You could then use other apps to display covers if that 
was too challenging to consider at this point.  Not that I truly have 
any idea what it would take to add what I am asking...
