Provide a "Preferred Size" Option for Selecting Album Art
I am generally choosing Album Art at 500x500. I can obviously use min/max to reduce the number of options, but it would be an ideal alternative if I could also select "Preferred Size" and have Bliss choose album art which matches or is close - Max/Min size would still be useful to give to give Bliss a certain amount of leeway (or even better, you could choose to accept any art within say, 10% of this size).

Be Able To Choose Album Art from Your Existing Collection
For Double Albums, Bliss will sometimes fail to find a matching cover for Disc 2. You may have chosen a particular cover for Disc 1 and then find that the only covers available for Disc 2 do not match. This could be fixed if one of your options for choosing Cover Art was from your existing collection of covers - especially if it was shown in "Most Recently Added" order - you could choose the same cover as you chose for Disc 1 with a couple of clicks. At the moment, my only option is to separately upload cover.jog from…

Better log output.
Right now there isn't really any way to tell what is going on... Why not print messages to somewhere like "Embedded artwork from X into Y files of Z album"?

Format track number as xx/yy (yy:album number of tracks)
'Track number length at least' could host en additional entry to specify track as xx/yy

Be clear about charges before installation
I think the developer should be clearer about the £10 charge for 1000 "fixes".

Dynamic playlists
bliss should allow automatic playlist management.
I should be able to define a playlist, its location, and how it is made up (e.g. using genre, artist, year etc information).
When music files are added or changed, bliss changes the playlist as appropriate.

Replay Gain / volume levelling rule
bliss should add a Replay Gain or volume levelling rule so that all music in my music collection can be levelled for volume.
As discussed: http://www.blisshq.com/music-library-management-blog/2010/11/03/mp3-volume-replay-gain/

Summary of stats
bliss should present a summary of music library statistics. For example, number of albums, of which how many are compliant and how many not. This could also be split by type of rule - e.g. how much cover art is compliant, how many files/folders are correct etc.

Merge Artists based on aliases
Some musical genres may be more concerned by this feature than others, but there are many artists (including famous ones) who release music under aliases.
At the moment, Bliss is "only able" to manage renaming and file sorting through the artist field. This feature idea would require a database connection such as discogs in order to scrape the "main" artist.
Example : Aphex Twin in his long career has released records under the name of Aphex Twin, AFX, Richard D. James, GAK, Polygon Window...
Renaming through Bliss would move all these files around with no connection whatsoever.Discogs manages to…

folder.jpg not updated when hidden/system attributes are set
Windows Media Player (v12 Windows 7) marks folder.jpg and AlbumArtSmall.jpg with the System and Hidden attributes. Bliss should be able to handle overwriting these.

Handle folders containing Singles
I have a main folder called "Full Albums" which contains the folder structures defines in my rules. I also have a number of folders like "Various - 00s", "Various - 90s" etc. Each of this folders contains lots of individual mp3 singles, each mp3 has it's own genre, year and file naming convention (without track numbers).
The only way I could think of doing this is allowing multiple music folders, and allowing us to setup rulesets for a each folder (or group of folders).

Add a table/details overview (in addition to the grid)
Iit would be good to have a list/table view with album names down the left, and columns for other aspects like artist names, compliancy of different rules and maybe shortcuts to functionality, e.g. changing the art, file paths or tags within the overview screen.
The analogy are file explorers: typically they allow grid/thumbnail views as well as detail views where files can be ordered by different columns, and different metadata about the files can be viewed in the column cells.
Just as with the grid view, you would be able to filter by compliance or startsWith. The option would likely…

Control over the case of a file/folder name
Currently bliss always performs case sensitive comparisons of music tags to file/folder names. It should be optional to force bliss to consider what a file/folder name should be in light of a preferred case.
For instance, when using <fileextension> to organise music files by their file type, it would be useful to be able to enforce capitals, otherwise on case sensitive file systems we may end with folders like mp3/, MP3/ and so on.

Add setting for Compilation Directory name.
Provide the ability to have a different folder for compilations.
Currently, the artist seems to default to 'Various'. The directory name could begin 'Compilations' for example.
Here's a similar idea to vary rules according to genre: http://ideas.blisshq.com/forums/21939-bliss/suggestions/36753685-individual-rulesets-for-different-genres

Auto update iTunes when bliss has changed an album
bliss integrates with iTunes by editing the music files that iTunes reads into its database. For artwork, it embeds the artwork into the file.
However, iTunes does not know that tags have been changed or artwork has been added. You have to use the "Get Info" option in the iTunes interface, for instance, to force iTunes to rescan for artwork.
Instead, bliss should tell iTunes that it should rescan automatically, once tags or artwork have been changed.
Note that a separate idea for rescanning iTunes when file locations have been changed already exists: http://bliss.uservoice.com/forums/21939-bliss/suggestions/1450921-update-itunes-database-when-bliss-moves-files

Use first track number if tagged with several
foobar seems to be fiddling with my track numbers when I change other tags, leaving tracks with two track numbers set. Squeezebox just seems to use the first number, ignoring the second, as does Mp3tag. bliss insists the files should be renamed with notracknumber. Would be better if bliss just used the first track number or (even better) optionally fixed the track by removing the second track number.

Support for "wildcard" directory prefix
Support for "wildcard" prefixes to allow for directory structure such as /storage/music/flac & /storage/music/mp3. Pointing Bliss to /storage/music currently generates a Uncompliant file path warning.

Manage playlists with regard to the planed "Organise files" feature
I really like the idea of the upcoming "Organise Files" feature (files are renamed and moved into directories based on their tags, like: artist/album/tracknum-trackname). However there is one major reason for me why I would not use that feature at the moment: it would break any playlists that have those files in them (at least all the ones based on file path, most I guess).
My suggestion is to add a feature that corrects playlists when changing the path of a music file (name and directory). To keep things simple I would have the user supply one directory of playlists…
