After Nikolaj's brilliant work on the new playlist, people have started making lots of thinky thoughts and such, which is a brilliant thing - the problem is, of course, that we have been making those exact thinky thoughts ourselves(*), and as such, here i am blogging the mockup i've already referred to in Nikolaj's entry a few times. So, with no further ado, here's a link to my little mockup, done while bored in a lecture, but after considerable amounts of prior thought and suchlikes



A slight further explanation from a comment in Nikolaj's entry. To understand how the tracks in this playlist works, imagine the following logic:

Take any track in the playlist:

1. If the track before this one is an album header, show this track without shared information (but with album cover replaced with total album group duration (length of all tracks from said album in the current group))


2. If the track before this one is in stead the second track (above) or a similar track to this, do not show shared information and also not album group duration.

(*) Just to make sure this is not taken as snotty-nosed-ness - Really just saying this so that people's well-tuned mental energy can be spent thinking thoughts that haven't been thought already And, of course, in the name of openness, something i'm not so good at doing like this (i normally just talk in channel rather than sit here and blog, as i am sure can be told from my... style, shall we say )
