the oldest songs.

The maximum number of original playlists is 999 with 
a maximum of 99 songs in each playlist.

Each album CD counts as an original playlist. Adding 
a track from a user playlist into the same user playlist 
will cause the track to appear twice in the playlist.

Deleting an album (original playlist) also deletes the
