Now that you bring it up...

It just so happened that JamForte and I requested the same song this morning - presumably within minutes of each other...

What would be optimal would be if the computer sees two requests for the same song and just counts it as one. I mean, let's say that Jam's request happened first. When it comes up an hour or so later, does it matter to me that it's playing "Jam's request" and not mine? No, I'm hearing the song I requested, so I'm happy.

If it waits until whatever the specified time is before it can play it again and does so to fill "my request," that seems sort of pointless because it has already played and satisfied my desire to hear the song. (Unless I was away from the computer at the time, which isn't the fault of the request system. I probably would have missed it if Jam hadn't also requested the song.)

Maybe it already does this, I don't know. It just seems logical that it should.
