Moody for iTunes by Tim Yu

One-upping most other iTunes enhancers, Moody does a better job of creating playlists by basing them on mood. A Crayon Room creation, it's a more accurate way to predict what you want to hear across all types of music and creates a streamlined, consistent shuffle.

Using a clever, color-coded tagging system, Moody filters songs according to your mood input. You can even customize your color and choose rollover text for each tag to use Moody in your own way. A novel way to organize your iTunes files, what we like best is that Moody leaves it up to type As to interpret and organize songs based on how they personally digest them. If you think a slow song in a minor key is the happiest thing in the world, then so be it.

Watch a tour and download a free version of Moody at the Crayon Room.

Eliminating the need to thumb through magazines or surf through sites, iConcertCal scans your iTunes music folder to comprehensively detail live concerts in a well-organized and personalized calendar. Available in...
Lily Allen Heads Up
Just a quick heads-up for American readers: Smile by Lily Allen, who we wrote about back in April and who last month made her live stateside debut, is this week's Free Download on the U.S. iTunes Store. A gently-skanking tale of being dumped, the tune was popular in the U.K. over the summer, and serves as a decent introduction to the talented Londoner....
