I'm looking for a way to have iTunes shutoff after a certain period of time. That is, if I'm playing a continuous stream from the radio, or playing from a long playlist, how can I set iTunes to stop playing after a set period of time?

I think that's another one of those things like getting it to play just one song or so; probably the easiest thing would be to make a smaller playlist that goes about as long as you're after. You could probably also achieve the effect through energy saver and getting the machine to go to sleep at a certain time.

I think a script would be the best way to do this.
