I figure that with directory-per-album, I can finally make sense of albums like soundtracks, compilations and such, that don't really have a proper artist for the whole album. I was diddling around with a "Various Artists" and a "Soundtrack" directory, but it always nagged me (here's my music OCD at work!). I also sometimes trade music, and as I do so per-album, I was finding that I was going up and down directories a lot. Since I didn't remember clearly why I picked "Artist/Album" in the first place, off it went. :-)
Another point of stabbitude with Rhythmbox I just experience is with queued songs. When one is playing, what does the "jump to playing song" command do? It puts the focus to the song in the queued song area, which, of course, is always the song at the very top, and I can find that in mere milliseconds should I ever want to (which I never do). Smart.
Maybe I should give Exaile a try. I already feel strapped for memory, loading up KDE's shared libraries for a single application seems a bit nasty.
Or maybe I'll just break down and write myself a fucking player. Remember that you promised you'd beat me up or something if I did that. Maybe my chance is now, since I'm out of reach! ;-)
