I don't think this fits the bill, music needs to be treated differently
to podcasts... I don't really care about how many times I played a music
track, although some might... and podcasts are more like email, or forum
articles, you just need to know if you have listened to them at all.. 

Infact, if you wanted to get really clever, being able to suspend
playback and resume where it left off would be really cool... since
podcasts tend to be 1 hour plus, and you may not manage to listen to it
all, and I often have to remember how many minutes were remaining...
etc...
