so...
what itunes needs (or is there a way now...?) -

some way to know if there are 'orphan' songs, ie songs in the library, but not in a playlist anywhere.

i try to keep things organized; today found a song in the main library unconnected to anything.

i know about grouping things by, for instance, genre.

but would be great if itunes had a search function for this

(perhaps iphoto, mail, address book as well, come to think of it....)

I was using Tune Transfer for backing up and transfering music from the ipod. One of the functions available is to locate and fix orphans
