Thanks for that info. I've never owned a Squeezebox before, and haven't gotten a Touch (yet), so I don't know how it works. I read the 'documentation' (http://www.logitech.com/assets/30072/documentation.pdf) but didn't see non-playlist music-playing mentioned. I'm thinking if I want to play by genre, I probably can't group genres, right? I probably can't have it play both "Rock" and "Classic rock" as a single super-genre. Same limitation with "Techno" and "Breakbeat", right? Can you tell it to play all the music within a particular folder? That's how my car's CD/MP3 player works. I would hope the Touch has similar functionality. I group my music in folders by super-genre, so I have a "Rock" folder, a "Hip hop" folder, a "Pop" folder, and an "Electronica" folder, etc. -- hawaiijim ------------------------------------------------------------------------ hawaiijim's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=37570 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=77156 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
