teinedreugan got me an MP3 player for my birthday, which I haven't gotten around to setting up despite wanting to have it set up before I go to Cali.
Thenthastygliax mentions he'd like to have a listen to the Egyptian reconstructed music disc I posted about yesterday. So I say, "Hm, I ripped that to MP3, I'm going away soon, he may be at games night, I'll get the MP3 widget thing set up and bring it and be efficient about all this." Hooray for motivation to get up off the ass.
So I spent a half hour attempting to extract the thing from its packaging, only to have it all fall out suddenly in a shower of little bits into my lap, much to the amusement of Arthur, who I managed to persuade not to attack any of it. (Sigh.)
And then I downloaded stuff into the thing, and discovered that it had no generic library playlist, and getting it to just play the library is a pain in the tail. Setting up an 'add everything to this playlist' habit when I rip new stuff just isn't going to work, and so I was trying to figure out how to get a smart playlist (automatically updating) that would include my entire library.
I have one now.
It consists of everything except music put out by any artist called Fnord.
Hail Eris. :)
