NAME
Mac::iTunes::Library - Perl extension for representing an iTunes library
SYNOPSIS
use Mac::iTunes::Library;
my $library = Mac::iTunes::Library->new();
my $item = Mac::iTunes::Item->new(
'Track ID' => 1,
'Name' => 'The Fooiest Song',
'Artist' => 'The Bar Band',
);

DESCRIPTION
A data structure for representing an iTunes library.
The library keeps track of the number of tracks by each artist (a hash of Artist => num_tracks) and the number of songs in each genre (Genre => num_tracks). Additionally, the total playcounts for each artist (Artist => playcount_of_all_songs) and genre (Genre => playcount_of_all_songs) are tallied. Finally, all of the items in the library are available, sorted by artist.
EXPORT
None by default.
