Random Playlist Creator with Genres (Yeah, long name, I know...) is a free and nice little app which will generate a random M3U playlist from a larger collection. In other words, a random playlist generator. When generating the playlist, you also have the option of being able to exclude specific genres based on the mood of the playlist you are trying to create.

If you are one of those people that have 50,000 tunes in your collection, you know how it can be sometimes when trying to figure out what to dump to your portable player -- to listen to. No where on the Net could I find a simple application for this. Sure, there were apps that would allow you to create a random playlist (ie. Winamp), but I couldnt find anything where I could exclude specific genres. And, of all the genre based apps I did find, none of them built the genre table based on your collection. So, you had to go through 300 genres to pick what you wanted. So, here it is. Hopefully, youll find it as useful as we do.
