Simple yet Powerful
for iTunes and Winamp

What does it do?

Beyond Genre is a music organizer and categorizer built on the premise that each song has more than one classification. Therefore, Genre alone does not help organize or categorize music. Furthermore, "grouping" in iTunes is not an easy to use interface for music classification. "Grouping" has to be re-typed each time; hence creating a cumbersome interface and also prone to typing mistakes. In Beyond Genre, you specify the attributes once and then assign them to your music collection using check boxes.

The software gives you the ability to tag multiple (and custom) attributes to a song. For example, you can assign a song with attributes:
song1 >> English, jazz, dinner, romantic
song2 >> English, dinner, romantic, instrumental
As you tag your songs, you can do things like:
Play (romantic, dinner) music but not (instrumental)
The software works only with VLC, Winamp and iTunes (and not Windows Media Player).

Testimonials

• " I installed and ran your program tonight and I must commend you on it's ease of use- it's very intuitive. That in addition to the great help screen shots on the website gurantee a quick learn. I agree with you that itunes is lacking in its ability to properly categorize music, and what could be better than having the user himself decide what category he thinks the music should go into? It's quite subjective and this takes care of the problem pretty easily. Great work. "
