In reading the forum I realized that I can use selective play, then "collection/random selector" to do damn nearly what I've been wanting to do! I wanted to rate songs, then select them based on rating, genre, and maybe artist to send them to a portable, or to make a playlist. I had to download the latest dap r3_beta6 because of bugs in r2, but this is really close to my ulitimate wishlist!
The only example of what this doesn't quite cover (being very picky now) is that sometimes I want to just select, lets say female recording artists. Since there is no genre for this, I'm not seeing a way to do this. My idea initially was to edit something into the tags that identified the track as a female recording artist, but since it won't search on all characters of a field, I can't quite do this. This is a minor issue at this point, but it might be something to consider. People might want to edit into the id tags some special identifier so they can grab certain playlists when they want to.
BTW, I recently registered to get pwr pack etc, and I'm definitely happy I did! Thanks Spoon!!
