WMP - "Recently added" section of library is gone in Windows 7
I buy albums (CDs or downloaded) rather fitfully - but quite often I'll get a whole lot at one time from a trip to my CD store, or from an Amazon delivery. I'm quite disciplined about getting them onto my computer, but I may not listen to all of them at once.
As a result it's very useful to have the Recently Added node in Media Player library so that I can quickly jump to these albums/tracks.
In Windows 7, this feature is gone, without explanation.
A rather awful work-around is to build an Auto Playlist based on library addition date or encoding date, but this is a) really hard for most users, b) doesn't work very well* and c) user playlists do not generate an album tile view like "native" library playlists.
*reports from the beta newsgroup confirm that Media Player doesn't even properly find the correct albums using these date parameters.
Revive the feature.
