Genius or idiot savant?

[Peter da Silva]

OK, I can dig that Apple's new last.fm-style music recommendation  
system is just starting up, so their Genius doesn't have as broad a  
musical taste as me, but it doesn't even seem to reliably know about  
tracks that I *know* are in the iTunes store. And it's not that I  
don't have them tagged correctly, because they were able to find the  
album artwork for them. Updating Genius takes forever, too.

I used to use a social playlist system that worked with iTunes, and  
worked MUCH better than Genius, but I seem to have misplaced the  
software, and can't remember enough details (like the name) to google  
it. It was faster, more reliable, and didn't care where the music  
came from originally. I'm wondering now if Apple borged them and  
turned their code into Idiot.

Speaking of album artwork, they REALLY need a way to show the  
location of the downloaded album artwork file so I can clobber it  
when it has the wrong one. All my jazz podcasts are showing up with  
the album cover of some BBC science show, and it's beginning to freak  
me out.
