I've been carefully ranking my music collection in iTunes. I reserved five stars for my all time favourite songs, songs that changed my life, songs that I think of when I think of major iconic musicians.

Having transfered that meta info I could then access it using their API and a bunch of PHP code and make this, my latest greatest mashup.
