Bad topic title I know but I was wondering if the following is possible....
I've quite a large library and I find all the last.fm scripts to be fantastic ways of (re)discovering music. The problem is that I normally listen to studio albums and much prefer these to appear in playlists over tracks from Greatest Hits. This is not so too bad but what happens is that quite often the track added to the playlist will be from a LIVE album.
I've setup Custom fields to contain the word 'live' & 'hits' and also used the comment field like this. These scripts don't care of course so I need to either a) hack one of them or b) backup my DB and remove all live/hits albums. Generate my playlists and then put back the original DB.
Plan b) is ... what I plan but it's not ideal and will be a pain each time I think of a new artist/seed for a playlist.
Any other ideas ?

ScrobbleDJ, Last.fm node and similar artists scripts anyways. Would be great to be able to specify a priority. So if the script dinis 3 tracks for say "pulp - common people" it picks the one where custom1='studio' first. If that doesn't exist then look for custom1='hits' and if still nothing. Then take whatever is left.
