Replacing albums feature please

So now we have a playlist improver in EA that can replace tracks in a playlist if they are unavailable with ones that are. This is good for those switching services and can now likely maintain playlists.

I have to ask @jamie why this replace feature cannot be rolled out to help replace albums that Qobuz has a a habit of making unavailable when they change version but Roon then orphans them as unavailable and does not replace them. This is a bugbear of Roons streaming integration that’s always been a thing since Qobuz was added. Surely something can be done if it can be done in a playlist?

And pretty please allow me to copy my metadata edits from the unavailable version to the identified new one. (Yes, there is a feature request :wink: but it would be a shame to have an album replace feature without this, so I had to mention)

Just for context because I came across it and it has quite many votes

This was more of a feedback why cant you thread now they have this. This has been raised so many times in other threads and I had one, that got lost in the mix.

Yea. Someone (not me) had moved it to Feature Suggestions

I hadn‘t known about the newly linked thread (though am aware of many others) and it seems to be the one with the most votes (or close to) so I figured linking it can’t hurt
