Well, nothing is impossible in software but how would/should I enforce it? Should I give everyone, say, 1 hour of request time. If they request Greg Howard's
Water On The Moon their limit for the day is exhausted; whereas, they could request 20 3-minute songs if they choose wisely.

It has been working better since I enforced placing user IDs on every request. There are those who still request the same song multiple times. In some cases it is because they missed the track when it played, so I give them the benefit of the doubt. If, however, it is a song that is rather lengthy and I
know this song has been played often enough that
everybody has neard it at least once in their lifetime, I may opt to dismiss the request -- especially if the queue length is not short.
