Layout Help

Hey all... I really do want to thank everyone for all the help and advice you give. I know my questions sometimes are probably more annoying than anything else, but your input really does help. Anyway, I have a stack of 76 playlists I need to consolidate and display. These are from radio shows, so each playlist has the date, the name of the radio show, and anywhere from 20 - 27 tracks, artists, and albums on them. I know I could simply stick these into a MySQL database using fields like, date, show, track1, artist1, album1, track2, artist2, album2, etc. but would that really be efficient and would I be able to use PHP effectively to retrieve all that information and display it correctly? Has anyone out there done a similar project? If so, what was your approach? Thanks in advance, Jason Soza
