Advanced navigation feature?

Question

I thought of a possible optional feature to help navigate really long lists of artists or songs (since iPods are only getting larger in capacity.) It could be an optional setting, since it is somewhat different than normal usage.
Instead of always starting from the beginning after clicking on 'Artists', have the list automatically start from a later position, depending on where you first place your thumb to start scrolling.
So if you wanted to play a song by say Madonna, after clicking on 'Artists' you could put your thumb near the 6 o'clock position on the clickwheel. The list would start in the middle of the alphabet (which is the letter 'M'.)
You could divide the click wheel into roughly 6 segments (A - E - I - M - Q - U), that would be enough to always get you pretty close to whatever artist you wanted. Or even 4 segments might be simpler and thus easier to use.
What do you guys think? The interesting thing is that this feature would be very hard for other players to duplicate, since the clickwheel has a relatively long circumference compared to the single scroll lines in other player controls.
BTW- how do I submit such feedback to Apple? I remember there being some form or email address to submit feedback...
Thanks,
Steve

Answer 1

I agree!!! I would be happy if it would give the option to have an A-Z list appear once you have chosen, for example "songs". That way you could go directly to the letter you wanted. I have left feedback & encourage everyone to do the same. For those of us with 20+ GB, it would sure save a lot of frustration.
