Ah. No, I use "Playlist Export" from the Mac App store to export .M3U playlists from iTunes (I have about a 100 playlists for various genres and artists). So, I can do all of my track tagging and playlist management in iTunes and then export everything to my Mac Mini for MinimServer/Streamer (which transcodes to WAV/24 for SQ and for compatibility with my various household streamers).

I like Playlist Export, because it lets me replace portions of the file/pathname to match the system running MinimServer (which is not my iTunes system).

You know, to be frank, many of my playlists are now obsolete, since discovering how to get MinimServer to sort an Album Artist's collection of albums by release date. If there was a "New Music" container, as I describe above, I would be mostly freed from playlist curation (other than "Mixers" that I create of favorite tracks in a specific order from a particular artist).

Please, please, please... :-)
