This means that songs with muliple genres, i.e. a Led Zepplin track will be rock, blues and psych-rock. So if I make a blues playlist, I put ‘contains’ blues and it will come up.

I also create ‘mood’ playlists, i.e. Post-apocalyptic which contains heavy drum n bass, industrial, punk and hardcore. Or space lounge, which contains downtempo, deep-house and groove.

I use my iPod at my work…where dozens of people are listening to it…so the songs have to be clean and fairly new…no one wants to listen to the same song over and over.

Therefore, the main play list i use at work is broken down into two criteria:
1 – songs that have been played 10 or more times.
2 – songs that have not been played in the last 10 days.

I named it “10 and 10″ (haha)…this keeps the music from playing every single day…and its pretty much going to be pretty good songs since I’ve listened to it 10 or more times.

My other play lists are:
Play List 1 – songs that have a zero play count.
Play List 2 – songs that have been played 1-3 times.
Play List 3 – songs that have been played 4 times.
This play list (3) is the one i play in my car to see if they are inappropriate to play at work)
Play List 4 – songs that have been played 5-10 times.
I use this one at the work place.
Play List 5 – songs that have been played 10 or more times.
This play list is just a group of songs that I must like since they played so many times.

All my play lists have the live updating to keep the play lists updating as the music is played.
