Not content with the current offering, BeaTunes, Potion Factory, made this incredibly hot iTunes-companion:

It's fast and mostly accurate, and can build playlists based on BPM and "intensity". It's got a real awesome UI to boot.

When i made a playlist via BPM it didnt sound very special :/

It "listens" to the song and determines it via an algorithm. It will never be better than human analysis, but it does create some interesting playlists that I wouldn't have put together myself.

Does this thing break off saving the calculated BPM values to iTunes songs for anyone else?
It seems to always die with an AppleScript error after a few thousand songs.

Worked for my 8500+ libraries, both at work and at home.

I bow before your library. Sheesh!
I have a paltry 6,000 songs. It worked for all of them.

Worked great for my 3000 song library, a bit light for MacNN. Right now, I'm just looking for some nice DJ mixing software that's simple and cheap, to alter BPM and make a seamless mix.

Third time's the charm - it worked now.
It gets some weird results, though.

This looks promising.
