What it does
While iTunes has an Xml export option, it will export only those tracks from your computer, doesn't allow you to choose what data to export (unless you play with the view), uses a bulky Xml format, and won't export from other sources (like iPods).
iTunes Playlists to Xml will allow you to generate a compact Xml file from any source's playlists (including the entire Music 'playlist'), with a large number of available properties (Artist, track Name, Played Count, Rating, etcetera).
Requirements
iTunes Playlists to Xml requires Windows XP or later, .NET Framework 2.0 or later, and iTunes 8.x or later (but will probably work on 7.x, and may work on even earlier versions).
Installing
To install iTunes Playlists to Xml you just need to extract the contents of the above zip.
