Yet more quibbles:

When I want to play/stop a track, I want to do so in a hurry; which means I want the STOP button adjacent to the PLAY button.

I keep hitting the PAUSE button.. annoying. I like the pause/unpause idea, though.. except it's a hassle if you accidentally hit the PAUSE button while trying to mouse over to STOP.

WHAT WOULD BE COOLER, HOWEVER....

Would be if you could toggle the PLAY button to play/stop.

"Why is that logical?"

Because as it is now, it does play/play: with the mouse over the play button, you can't do anything if you press play (playback) play (playback again). Yeah, you hear it twice in row, in a hurry - but what's the point in that, since in order to affect a chance you're going to have to STOP it?

On the other hand, if I can go PLAY (playback) then PLAY (stop), I can quickly stop playback without having to move the mouse. This prevents accidentally hitting PAUSE, while at the same time reducing the need for yet another "Momentary Concentration Deviation To Aim the Mouse" event....

You still can have it playback in a row quickly, just by clicking
one more time. Wouldn't the functionality of that be more useful?



/ all about reducing those Momentary Deviations....
