Add 30 seconds track samples for albums
It would be great to be able to listen to excerpts from albums you don't have but would like to have a short listen to - to see if it's what you really want to buy. 30 seconds clips are legal, and while it consumes some web space and bandwidth, it would also be a great addition to listen through ... more

provide a way to view submission statistics
It would be neat if you could view who submits material and edits. Maybe a breakdown by type of submission (album, tracklist, art, edits) could go in their profile or you could browse through people by stat?

"reprised by" for the albums they aren't involved in
