I have 80+ playlists, most of which I transfer (sync) to my portable device. Currently there are two ways to select which playlists I want:
- synchronize playlists > all playlists
- synchronize playlists > selected playlists only > manually tick about 70-75 playlists

I'd like to see a way to have the tick boxes show up when the first method (all playlists) is selected and let the user untick the ones not wanted. Or any other method that would allow the selection of most, but not all playlists to be selected without having to tick each one.

Thanks.

Thinking this through a little further... if implemented I envision a list of all playlists, each with its own tick box. And the options "Select All" and "Select None." With "Select All" all the boxes are ticked and the user can untick what they don't want transferred. With "Select None" all boxes are unticked and the user can tick what they do want transferred. This way the user can simply select to transfer just a few, or all -except- a few.
