    Hi All,

    WMP10, Windows XP SP2

    I'd like to follow generally accepted advise to store my music files in
    directories by first letter of the artist. (This speeds up browsing the
    files directly when necessary).

    Is there a way to tell SMP to rip to a path like that? For example, I'd like
    my ripped music directory to look like this:

    /music/e/eminem
    /music/p/price
    /music/q/queen

    Right now, I just have to rip to
    /music/eminem
    and then manually move the /eminem folder under e

    BTW -- it's wonderful that WMP can still find the file and automatically
    update it's path

    Thanks for any ideas or pointers to plugins.
