[slim] Why 'download' link in songinfo?

2005-11-02 Thread SlimPvC

I've always wondered why there is a 'download' link in the songinfo
page. What's the idea behind this?

- I always listen to my own collection, so there's no need to download
tracks that I already got.
- I use the squeezebox at work to listen to my collection at home, and
though they can listen too, I don't want my collegues to download my
entire collection. 

That's why i remove the download link in this page manually before
'opening' my collection to others. 
The only use I can think of is when sharing collections, which would
make Slimserver sort of 'peer to peer' program, which I don't think it
is intended to be.

I personally have no idea (its been there since before I came along), 
but I've seen the complaints when it didn't work.
I've also seen the requests (and debate) over having a feature to more 
easily download an entire album.

apparently song by song is just far too annoying.

my personal stance would be to avoid all download and upload of song 
files via slimserver.

Mine too.  That seems a little outside the core functionality to me. 
Obviously someone wanted it enough to implement it, though.
