Hi,

It is pretty normal for a playlist to repeat some songs to achieve a desired “story”.

A blanket ban for any duplicate song in any playlist is really unimaginative and restrictive. Indeed, some users will never want to have any duplicate songs in any playlist and this is where the power of defaults enters the room.

That is, instead of a “This track has already been added to the playlist” message, asking the user “This track already exists in the playlist, would you like to add it again?” input and giving them to say “Yes, No” and a checkbox to “Make this the default action for this playlist” would be more flexible and would cover all uses-cases. 

It has been 2 months since I switched to Deezer and I want to continue using it but these little annoyances start to pile up and I hope the dev team can agree that this is a must-have for a music lover.
