    Post Playlists!?? :)

    Now I know this topic has been around many times before, but I'm after an update. What are people out there using to sort their tunes? Is there any good plugins for winamp that do Album searches, and stuff? I'm just after a better way to organise my tunes. At the moment I have one big mother huge playlist, and a print out of it. Then I just punch in the number of a song with the UIR plugin via a remote.

    Any better ways??

    Thanks

    Well, I've gone the DOS route and I'm not sure if you could do something like this in winamp, but I think it's worth sharing.

    Basically, I have all my tracks in folders/subfolders based on artist then album. The program I am using loads all the MP3s on the drive and then can step through each folder. Since it loads them alphabetically (DOS) I just use the skip folder button to advance by album and the skip track button to advance by song. I can also dial in a track directly (ie. 1388 jumps to that song). Since it's alphabetical, it's pretty intuitive to guess where a track is, or at least get close to it, and then skip up to it. I only use playlists for specific compilations. It's also good because anytime new tracks are added, I don't have to make a new playlist or change anything around, they're automatically put in the right spot.
