♫ Episode #12 – iTunes & AppleScript


Listen Later

Doug and Kirk discuss iTunes and AppleScript. This was bound to come sooner or later, since Doug is the AppleScript ninja. We look at what AppleScript does, and discuss more than a dozen of the most useful AppleScripts to use to manage your iTunes library.

“AppleScript does not run on Windows, and Windows does not run in my house.”
