Some iPod Suggestions

A couple of pet peeves from my iPod, which I freely admit is not the latest whizz bang video version but a plain ol’ 4G; Firstly, when I’m in in shuffle mode sometimes a song will come up that makes me feel like listening to something else, either on the same album or by the same artist. To get to this song you have to go all the way out, into the music menu, select the correct artist or album and find the song. It would be a lot simpler to have menu options off each song to say ‘see rest on this: album/artist/genre’. Secondly there are times when a song is not ripped properly and you want to know to remove it when you’ve back at a computer, or you just hate the song, so it would be nice to mark songs for deletion that iTunes automatically acted upon. You can fake that by settings the star rating to one and filtering for that but it’s not a smooth interaction.
