Save Masses of Time With Your iPod Tracks
Smart PlayList tip#1
My Limited Top Tracks

If you limit your tracks to just 10 or even 40 and selected by most often played then you will always have a cool track playing. So click on "match the following rules", then in the boxes from left to right: My Rating, is, 5 stars.
Smart PlayList tip#2
When did I listen to that?
If you own a large drive iPod some tracks can easily get forgotten and lost. Each track within your collection is tagged by how many plays that it has had. So you can set up a playlist to listen to the tracks that you have listened to once, or even never. So click on "match the following rules", then in the boxes from left to right: Play Count, is in this range, 0 to 1.
Smart PlayList tip#3
Podcasts and Audio Books
Apart from tunes, the Smart List can bring together most things iPod related. If you have other files like Podcasts they can creep into your music playlists. So you can create a playlist specifically for them (storing it away in a subfolder of iTunes Source pane). You can use "playlist" "is not" Spoken word filter to stop speech getting into other playlists. So click on "match the following rules", then in the boxes from left to right: genre, is, Podcast. Then in the boxes underneath from left to right: genre, is, AudioBook. Then in the line underneath. Podcast, is true.
Smart PlayList tip#4

Smart PlayList tip#5
Unwanted Tracks
You can easily get tracks that you don't like or want within your playlists. So setting up a playlist dedicated soley to tracks that you don't want to hear will also allow you to stop them appearing in future smart playlists. If you save this file as "don't want" allows you to then select "playlist" "is not" "don't want" on a future smart playlist. So click "match all of the following rules", then in the boxes from left to right:
genre, contains, podcast.
