Bandcamp batch UPLOAD

Bandcamp requires you to pay 'just $10 USD/month' for 6 pretty much useless features and one other feature that I believe should be available for free, given that they charge 15% off every purchase your customer makes anyway - batch track upload.

Currently, to upload your release, for every file you gotta press Add Track, choose it from pop-up browser window (drag&drop? what on earth is that?), then wait before it's uploaded, and only than can you select and queue another one - now the last part is completely sadistic and unnecessary. It takes much more unnecessary effort than if you could, at least, press Add Track several times, chose your files and leave it uploading whereas it doesn't put any additional pressure on the shoulders on bandcamp servers - so what do they charge you for? If you think about it, they don't charge money to extend the functionality - they charge you for taking down their BLOCKING of functionality, which is not very just. I believe this is a reason enough for such script to be made but if you're a programmer looking for a bit more motivation to get involved, consider this - you'd be making life of bandcamp musicians and labels (including those that give their amazing music away for 'Name Your Price') a lot easier, putting together a script that would allow multiple files to be queued at once.
