Ahah, the two camps...thos that plays whole albums versus those that
build playlists!
There are three ways to play whole albums from the album library
listing (touch album art, "Play All" from next screen, and of course
touching the first track in any album). Why do you need three ways?
Surely two is more than sufficient?

I find it hard to believe that the (very) small advantage gained for
some by being able to play a whole album one screen sooner could
outweigh the inconvenience of irretrievably destroying a playlist for
others. This issue so damages the usability of the iPeng product for me
(and I'm sure for many others with less than fine fingers who build
playlists) that (and for the first time ever) I'm tempted to start a
poll!  :-)

(Allowing for thee constraints of the iPhone) the iPeng app is near
perfect for me and I would be entirely happy as it stands if only I
could turn off the "click artwork to play album" function. All the other
functionality listed above has no interest for me and I fear it is
probable that if the only choice was between "all of the above" and
"none of the above" then iPeng would still not be suitable for everyday
use by those inclined to build playlists who have their music held as
albums, and very especially for casual use amongst their visiting
friends.

Think the third party Squeeze plugins and applets are important?
Then 'vote for bug 14194'
(http://bugs.slimdevices.com/show_bug.cgi?id=14194) so more can be
made.
