Add 'played at' time to playlists
The tracklisting feature is great. However could also also add the time that the track was played at (surely this data must be saved?). This'd be more useful than the order number given at the moment, as you're more likely to have remembered listening to a track at a rough time.
I’m hopeful

Inappropriate?Hi, Frankie,
Unfortunately, we're not able to list this information due to rights reasons. I think in future we'd like to be able to add rough timing (perhaps in quarter-hour chunks) but that needs a good long talk over some coffee and biscuits with other people.
Glad you like the new feature (which is in /programmes rather than /music/beta) and keep listening.
I’m hopeful too

Inappropriate?Rights reasons? What an arse. When did this kick in? Adam and Joe's show from 21st June has played at times, but shows after that don't seem to.
I'd be interested to know why the rights companies are against this feature (having had to try and deal with them in the past). I'm guessing it's to stop people from fastforwarding to that minute of the show in your new Flash-based radio-on-demand player to listen to the track. All the same, surely the most common use for the tracklistings is to help people locate the names and artists of tracks they heard on the radio - which is surely good for record sales...
Incidentally, I just remembered your last.fm feeds, which do reveal the exact play time (see 6music tracklisting). But I won't tell PPL and PRS if you won't... :)
P.S Thanks for correcting me on this being a /programmes issue rather than /music/beta. Have removed the relevant link. Though the boundaries do blur (in a wonderful way).
I’m intrigued
