Is there a way that you can force people to logon to AM in order to request any songs and then once requested, the requested song will be grayed out to that user ID for say 14 days rendering it un-selectable for the 14 days by that user ID? On day 15 it will become active again. Kind of like spam guard that a lot of forums have but for a longer period of time.

It doesn't sound stupid. Unfortunately, I'm not a programmer either (in spite of what my boss thinks). So what you're suggesting, while possible (and in fact likely feasable), I'm not quite sure where I'd start in implementing it.

It's not a half bad idea, though it'd likely be a tad rough on the database.

Let me mull it about and see what I might be able to come up with.

Roger -Dot- Lee, another good idea...
