I had another thought on how to possibly speed up the search on large music collections. Can you make it so it doesn't just search by title, but also by artist?

For example:
play the album Us by Peter Gabriel

As it currently works, if you just say
play the album us

it'll return every instance of 'us' in any album title. Obviously giving it an artist name you could just search the subset of albums by that particular artist instead of searching the entire database.

I'm not completely sure but I think there's a problem with having certain punctuation or characters in the title. If I search for Alien Covenant which has a colon in it, it returns an error. Also, the IMDB title for Alien III is a superscripted 3, and that seems to cause an error.

Just thought I'd let you know in case you do want to get this advanced further. I'll be happy to test things out.
