I often stumble upon very interesting albums on the website, but sometimes I forget about some of them, and to avoid it, I have to save the link somewhere. If the site had some mechanism so that people could save the albums they're interested to hear later, it would make things easier.

Ah... No. You should not rate albums you have not heard.

Sure, why not. I use Amazon's Wish List to bookmark albums so why not simply have a "bookmark" button here?

Doesn't seem like anything is "simple" with this website, but if it can be done easily, go for it.

I guess there's a number of artists/albums on bandcamp that I want to remember; I just make a bookmark in my browser and put in a music folder.

Exactly. I thought of Amazon's Wish List or IMDB's Watchlist. Progarchives could have a "To-Hear List" or something like that. :)

Why not just stick the URL in Pocket, or a Google Keep list?

Sure, Goolge wouldn't dream of using any of the personal information you store with them for their own purposes would they... all those targeted Ads are just coincidences and lucky guesses.

Indeed, great idea. I wish we could implement this as an easy-to-use feature.

I like this idea too, but it might be something that you can do within Firefox or Explorer by bookmarking the pages on your computer and creating a PA folder and saving the bookmarks within it.

There's no ads in Google Keep, and links to albums on PA isn't personal information.
