It would be nice if the "articles to ignore when sorting" setting applied to internet radio stream names too - lots of the shoutcast streams start with "The".

Lots of them start with the word "Radio" too.... Im not sure whether that should be in the default list of articles to ignore.

In what context do you think they should be ignored? Just on the display itself?

Ignoring would need to happen on the server-side generation of the XML for Shoutcast.

Andy - thoughts?

Hmm yeah we don't currently sort any radio stuff.  What would happen if we allowed sorting for Slim Devices Picks for example, and the showcase "Best of" link is no longer on top?  Not sure we should do that.

Comment 3 Dan Sully 2006-08-04 17:40:19 UTC

Agreed.. I don't think we want to change this behavior.
