Playlist for purchased music.

Here’s an iTunes tip. If you want to play music you just purchased recently from the iTunes store as a playlist, you can certainly use the canned, green “Purchased” playlist in your iTunes Store Library item, but you run the risk of playing any videos you may have.

All you have to do is create a Smart Playlist with some filtering. Simply use the same “Purchased” playlist, but filter it to only play your music:

Select “File”, “New Smart Playlist…”. Filter out the kind of media; since music files are AAC, and video is MPEG-4, just play AAC files.

Rename your new playlist by clicking on the “untitled smart playlist” once, and then again; perhaps, name it “recent music purchases”.

Easy.
