A few months ago I started using the "comments" field to add tags to tracks. Just single descriptive words separated by spaces. I could then set up smart playlists like "comments contains female" + "comments contains rap" + "comments contains french" and get only songs by French female rappers. It works really well, but it's a pain to enter the tags manually, and to remember the exact list of tags I used. We need a little plug-in that will display a drop list of user-defined tags, and will add the selected tag to the comments field on the fly. Any programmers or Applescript writers out there?

I don't have any songs that could not be classified with more than one tag. Whenever I fill in the "Genre" box, I feel guilty... Exactly!

For now I just have to create "foundation" playlists (like "Not At Work") and use that one to exclude songs from other playlists. Hey,
