I was just realizing this myself... I think three DOS commands could do most everything I'd like.... 'move', 'md' and 'rd'. But I'm thinking that I really do want a GUI. I'm hoping to encourage a couple guys in the NEX group who write in Visual Basic, to create an interface like MusicMatch. That's the type of interface I find the easiest to create playlists with.
