 Best way to add holiday music?

Questions
redline
 
I like to only play holiday music during the month of December, so I've traditionally removed these files from my library each year and archived the music.

Last year, I kept a copy of my iTunes Library file (with only holiday music remaining) so that I could retain my playcounts and ratings. Now that it is time to reintroduce these files into my main library, I'm wondering what the best way to do so would be.

Any ideas?

 iPod doesn't match iTunes smart playlist?

Questions
redline
 
I created a smart playlist titled "Recently Added":


Date added - is in the last - 31 days
Limit to - 50 songs 


This way, I can quickly listen to brand new songs I just bought and/or downloaded. The playlist is perfect in iTunes.

On the iPod however, in addition to songs just added, I also get songs which I have not recently added, but just made a change to- such as designating a different playlist for the song.

Anyone know why this is happening and how I can make it stop?

 Randomize certain things?

Questions
redline
 
I want to find a way to set up the iPod so that any way I listen to it, whether choosing by artist, genre, etc., is randomized--except albums. I like to listen to albums with the correct song order.

Can anyone come up with a way to do this?

 Randomizer?

Questions
redline
 
Is it possible this will work the way I intend? I want to randomly play songs not recently played as well as include highly rated songs I like to hear (those will have a high play count) and not get a lot of repeats (i.e., mid-rated) which seem to occur when I use the Apple iTunes shuffle.


Last Played - is not in the last - 5 days
Play Count - is less than - 5
My rating - is in the range - 4 to 5


Does the scripting for Smart Playlists support an "or" condition or is it solely based on "and" conditions?

Questions

Is there a way to burn a cd with crossfading exactly as-is when I play a smart playlist with this option set?

 "Empty" Smart Playlists on iPod?

Questions
redline
 
Anyone having this problem? I make a Smart Playlist using "If comment contains..." as the only defining criteria, and it works perfectly in iTunes. However, when I sync it to my iPod (30GB), the name of the playlist shows, but the list is "empty" -- a blank iPod screen with no songs at all. It seems ONLY to happen to Playlists based on text in the Comments field.
