[iTunes] Re: DJ Sets Tagging

[S. Moussly]

The playlist does sound like a good idea for DJ sessions, but that  
means you have to create a playlist for each artist. And I think its a  
bit too late to retag 15GB worth of music :)

I do however recall that iPod has an option of searching through the  
composer, check in the iPod setting, it should be there. I wonder if  
you can create/add software on iPod.

On the other hand, any recommendations of good plug-ins/scripts for  
iTunes?
