Find me a reliable way to transfer my current tagging and auto-playlist system to another player, and I'll probably do that.

That's the thing, though... it's a system. I don't have any fixed playlists - they're all generated each play based on my rating system and other media info. I could save my TTSGS playlist to an m3u today, but it would be obsolete tomorrow if I got any new media or changed ratings. As it is, I only update the file's library info, and the playlists do the rest, whereas if I went with fixed playlists, I'd have to manually edit 5+ different playlists for every new track I add/modify.

Less micro-management is important when you have 3000+ items in your library and over a dozen different playlists.

I loved WMP9... WMP10 was ok, but it took some getting used to... I don't think I'll ever get used to the retardedness of WMP11 though.
