At the time of writing this, the oldest show on nkd.su is august 25th 2012, albeit that was before full usage began and the following show on september 1st 2012 is missing most tracks.

The proposal would be an ability to add a show in the past along with the songs featured. Some shows have their iTunes Playlist preserved, but others don't and would need creating by hand, but in a nicer way than currently.

At the moment, I think it is technically possible to do this, but it would require manually going into the admin screens, adding a show, adding each track using the django interface, which is not ideal, and even then requiring timings for tracks is awkward (for historic shows like this, simply having them in order with a minute difference between them would be fine).

colons suggests I should make iTunes Playlists and colons writes an importer to handle it. Separate the hours with a dummy track.

I wrote up the playlists of the Sep 1st 2012 (which is on nkd.su but with only two tracks listed) and the most-recent missing show (Aug 22nd 2012) so that you can give this a whirl when you've got a minute. Also because I can't help myself.

I'll leave it at those two until you figure out the process for this, but happy to get through more old shows after that.
