I'm trying to create a themed playlist for an app (and for some successive apps if I can make this work). The instructions say artist/band iTunes id, I'd like to designate specific songs for my playlist.

Just from your description, would another approach be to make your own YouTube playlist with the selected songs on it? -- Niraj Comments Hey there Wanda! How goes it.

I tried the YouTube Playlist approach, and the artists have cleverly embedded little pieces of code that prohibit their videos from playing through mobile apps, which defeated my purpose of setting a certain emotional mood within my app. So I'm turning to iTunes instead, and possibly wanting to make 5% on my recommendation of the music - not a YouTube video. So the question remains - can I tweak the code to point to specific songs? Comments Ahhhhh, Niraj, my comrade in arms!
