applescript for iTunes: re-randomize smart playlists
Smart playlists in iTunes that have "Selected at random" checked don't automatically re-randomize. So if you have a smart playlist set up to choose 25 techno tracks rated 4 or higher, you'll always get the same 25 unless you go in and clear the tracks from the playlist every once in a while. This script re-randomizes all your smart playlists.

Download the script here. If you've never used Applescript in iTunes before, here are some instructions. If you find this script useful, leave a comment, I'm curious.

Update: this script is now included at Doug's AppleScripts for iTunes. Woo!
