First my apologies if I am just a moron and this is already a feature.

Anyway, the way I listen to music is fairly simplistic. I don't use the playlist feature alot, because I generally like to dump in folders of music that may differ from day to day.

Ctlr-insert works great, but you can only add one folder at a time AFAIK. Also, it is quite easy to be setting up your music and hit ctrl-delete by accident, thereby erasing the fruits of your labours (don't laugh - I probably do this once for every two setups)

If anyone has used XMMS under unix/linux, there is a button on the add directory dialog that simply adds the entire folder to your playlist without closing the dialog box, enabling the ability to quickly add folders of music to the current playlist.

FWIW - I absolutely love this player. I will never have winamp on any of my machines again.
