The Filter iTunes Plugin: Create Automatic Playlists


I’ve wanted functionality like this for ages. The Filter is a great iTunes plugin that automatically creates playlists when you select a few songs and click on the big black “F” button. So, rather than randomly browsing through your music collection The Filter can build playlists in seconds to fit your mood.

The Filter is particularly great if you have a big music library. I have nearly 16,000 tracks in mine or 47.7 days of music, so The Filter is great at adding tracks to playlists that I haven’t heard for a while or forgotten I had. Now I’m creating on-the-fly playlists everyday for free.

To give The Filter a go yourself click here.

    Bloody hell – this is what I’ve been looking for! I saw this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PTP0hFW6LUM and was curious and did some research and wow – it works a treat – death to the shuffle and smart playlists…
