Quite a while back, when iTunes was largely inaccessible without a lot of roundabout maneuvering, I remember wondering if one could use a manually written .m3u playlist or one made in vlc. As I recall iTunes didn't handle the m3u playlists at the time; I could be wrong about this but i was so desperate to do something accessible about playlists that I'm sure I tried this and failed. Anyway, I'm right now working on a project that involves .m3u playlists and I had planned to automatically use vlc instead of iTunes. However, I tried it with iTunes and found that the files in the playlist were played and iTunes even said something about processing the files for the playlist. So, while I realize that creating and building playlists isn't nearly so cumbersome as it used to be with iTunes, if you have m3u playlists that ou've wanted to use, it appears that you can now do so. Just thought people might be interested in knowing this.
