Thanks for letting me know. Looks like my provider rebooted the server
without letting me know. It's back up again.

What happens if you tap the first track? Did you read "Help->Quick
Tutorials->Albums/Playlists" in the App? (It's the popup that comes up
automatically when you open an album the first time).
This works like on the iPod app, you have to simply tap the track to
use.
Shuffling generally doesn't work on Rhapsody, it's not an iPeng issue
but a MySqueezebox.com issue

No, THAT works, at least for me. Again, have you read the tutorial I
mentioned above?

This works for me, albeit the menu is a bit weired, you have to select
"play playlist(1)" in Play mode... Again, have a look at that
tutorial.

Of course you can. It's on the "NowPlaying" overlay that you get when
tapping the big cover. It's like on the Web interface, the icons
replace the "shuffle" and "repeat" icons which in turn are placed where
they are on the iPod app...
You can also use the context menu ("hold" the big cover art). There's
also a tutorial about context menus in "Help" in the app, that one did
also show up automatically.

All of them are working now :)
Sorry for the inconvenience about the web site.
