I listen to music on my computer all the time. I don't have a huge apartment and the crummy Dell speakers are fine as long as they're not cranked up. All of my 500+ CDs also got stolen out of my car several years ago right after I had finished ripping all of them onto my hard drive so THANK GOD for that. Lots of memories in this silly computer box...
I've used iTunes since I got my first iPod back in 2005 (btw: I've also had 3 iPods stolen since then and now have 0

). I stopped upgrading iTunes versions at 7.5 and wish I had earlier. This is one of the most annoyingly bloated pieces of software I run but I love the interface and ease of cataloging my huge library of .mp3s.....so unless someone knows of a better alternative, it's staying (for now).
Anyway, when I listen to music in iTunes, 99% of the time it's like this:
Party Shuffle On
"Play higher rated songs more often"
Playlist of my 2,500 or so favorite songs
This generally yields good results, but sometimes there are just absolutely horrible transitions. No one should ever have to hear Jay-Z's "Where I'm From" back-to-back with Buffalo Springfield's "On the Way Home" or anything similar to that.
Does anyone know of some plugin that would allow me to specify certain songs that should NEVER be played in sequence? On Mac OS, I feel like there is definitely a way to do this with AppleScript....but I'm using iTunes under Windows XP.
If this is too vague, let me know and I'll try to explain better....thanks!
