Good thing you mention it. I actually feel the same way, but I didn't
post my thoughts yet.

I'm still looking into different apps and how they handle this. I like
the way RealPlayer does it. It has a plain and simple Pley menu. Not
sure though wether all current items we have in Song would fit in Play.

I feel a new round of mockups coming :-)
