Album run time

[CharlieBarley]

I think it would be good if each album's page had the run-time of the album.

Then you would know how long an album is going to be when you play it.
Then I could stop looking up album length on Wikipedia, of any particular album.

Hi, this was discussed quite a while back and the consensus seemed to be that this would be a lot of effort to implement with not a lot of added value.

Oh yeah - double whammy special delux remaster reimagined albums () are tough because it is often hard to know th original track listing (or stuff that has alternate tracklistings.

So totally get you there.

Sometimes what I do (which is also painstaking) is create a playlist from the "double whammy special delux remaster reimagined albums" and remove the extras.

But I hear ya. I did have amazon music on my phone and didn't remember if they did or didn't say album length.

I typically use Spotify because all features except for listen counts are all there the way I like them (including run time), and then make up for album listen to counts and the such via last.fm (something I really liked from the old school iTunes... counts of track listens, etc.)

Anyway, totally get the plight. I've done this with movies... I actually look up all the run times in movies and have a spreadsheet so if I only have an hour and half, I can still watch a movie and not accidentally select a 4 hour movie just before bedtime. But yes, it's tedious to do.

RateYourMusic doesn't list album runtimes either.

I keep lists with the runtimes of movies too.
