Wrong approach
Authored by: finnpage on Jun 19, '07 10:45:14AM

I think you miss the point entirely. I would love this so that I could set my "party shuffle" or other random playlist without having to worry that my young kids (or my in-laws for that matter) would be hearing inappropriate content. They don't use the machine themselves - they only listen to the music I put on. Kids that are old enough to play with the computer (especially unsupervised) are old enough to hear any music I might own.

No, I also get the new point you've changed it to, and digging at the explicit tag is still unnecessary to accomplish it. If you want to avoid certain songs, just put them on a "Do Not Play" playlist that is used to filter any other playlist using a smart playlist. This method is useful for "good" songs as well as "bad", like being able to have a "Christmas" playlist that you use to skip holiday songs for the other 11 months out of the year. It is far less complex to do than what is given in this hint and actually accomplishes what you want.
