Corrupted zip files: this is common among songs that were compressed using winzip that you may find on the internet. they aren't technically all corrupt, tho some may actually be. most are compressed using a method that is NOT "deflate" (a typical codec that the ZIP format employs), and there is no software on the mac (stuffit, zlib, BOMArchiveHelper) that can decompress these non-deflate zip files. but move it on over to windows and it'll unzip fine, then re-zip it using zlib, you should be good to go. that's what that "make playlist of all bad zips" is eventually gonna be, you'll be able to gather them all in one place, move to windoze, re-compress them, move them back. that feature is not complete, the smart playlist doesn't really work yet. but it will!

Name Parsing: Read this so you know what I'm talking about. There are still bugs with that, especially around numbers. You may run into this when importing zip files, or when rebuilding your (previously working) library.
No Intel Macs: Currently not compatible, will be fixing this hopefully soon.
