List or table?

[RammsteinNicCage]

Doing a table for this would be easy, but I wonder if it would be more *PC* to use a list? What I'll have is a tracklisting. Each row will contain the track number, the track name, and then the track time.

1) Track 1 (3:45)
2) Track 2 (5:02)
3) Track 3 (4:23)

I want the times to be right aligned and everything else to be left aligned. Also, if the track name is too long, I would need it to wrap, but I would want to make sure the times still line up with the right song.

So, my problem is... is a trackLISTing tabular data?

This is a table. It should be marked up as table.

Why would you want to do it any other way?

In my opinion, this kind of data is better represented in tabular form since you can sort it different ways : by track number, by title, by author, by duration, etc.

It's not a simple enumeration of items, but a table of item's proprieties.

And you answered yourself when you talked about 'rows' of data...

hehe, I know, I was trying not to answer myself by using the word "rows" but couldn't think of anything better. :p

I probably wouldn't have had any trouble choosing a table layout for it if I weren't already using a list for it (but without times). So, table it is, I guess. Thanks for helping me make a decision. :)
