Thank you! -
There's a good point being made about feedback for a user being better than just filtering out their content, and I agree to an extent.
On a couple of occasions where there are minor problems I feel more than comfortable to point out a small error or make a suggestion to use a different tone and provide an example.
My main point for complaint is when users upload a high volume of bad DLC in a short period - sometimes you'll check the page to find the same guy posting 16-18 tracks at once, with a couple of different uploaders mixed into the list - which can be easy to miss when you're trying to avoid a large block of "bad" DLC.
In some cases where there is a lot wrong, I'm at loss at what to suggest. I'm simply a user, not a creator, so I'm not in a position to make suggestions on how to make better tracks because I have no idea about the process. One could even say "what gives you the right to criticise when you make nothing yourself" - and to be honest I can't disagree with that, ultimately people that are trying to provide CDLC are ultimately just trying to provide for others.
I do disagree however that filtering will mean that I miss a "good" DLC by a user. Typically if I've got to the point of actively avoiding downloads because of the quality, it's very very unlikely that I'll download one to give it a try. Actually the only way I end up realising it's the same users initially is because I've accidentally downloaded a track and looked up the user after I found it unplayable.
I look forward to however community mods are going to introduce rating, and given the responses so far I'm pretty optimistic that time is being take to implement a system that encourages more people entering the CDLC pool whilst improving the overall quality of user submissions.
In the meantime maybe it's time that I take a look at the CDLC creation guide and give it a go myself before I throw anymore stones from my greenhouse.

+1 to this, but it'd be great if you could extend it to ignore by creator.
There's a particular DLC creator that consistently make a high volume of low quality DLCs that spam up the page and it's a pain to have to filter through or to end up downloading a track only to realise it's another terrible release.
I came to the forum with the intention of making a post to suggest this so I'm glad to see I'm not the only one.

I was listening to Radio II whilst driving today and they advertised a vote for the "top 100 guitar riffs"
On their website here is a list of guitar riffs, with an audio sample and a vote option.
So what do you guys reckon is the best guitar riff of the bunch listed? -http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/articles/3CPpg0bvRvy4kVLtv49MyD6/radio-2-top-100-greatest-guitar-riffs-vote
Also if any CDLC's makers are looking for a new song to make, it's a good source for inspiration :P
I think I've got to go with "Ain't talkin bout Love"

I'm having an issue that is somewhat similar, except that instead of CDLC's suddenly disappearing, some just don't appear at all ever.
For example I recently download "Fields of Gold" by Sting and it has never showed up in the playlist despite being in the correct folder.
When I first started downloading 'em, the only thing that would work was copy and pasting using short cuts, not moving them or anything. Bit of a long shot but worth a try
I always move them with shortcuts, could try moving them across folders though I guess

If anyone could bring tracks to life from this underrated game that'd be awesome. The guitar and overall vibe is absolutely brilliant.
