- Bart: Tip - the "Classical Music" smart album in iTunes gives a breakdown of your classical music by Composer & Collection. Perfect since most classical music has the conductor + orchestra as the artist, not the composer, and most albums contain many pieces, with each piece split over many tracks. The collections field lets you group these correctly. If you rip your own CDs you may have to set these fields yourself to use this view. (tip from Brendan Finan of the Classical Introductions Podcast)
- Paul: FourSquare Now available for Zurich and Geneva as well as many other European cities.
