[LAU] iTunes XML to M3U playlist conversion

Hi folks,

I've got a file named ContentsDB.xml which looks like an iTunes
playlist.  I'd like to convert it to an m3u file.  I did a
websearch for that and the software I found was mostly for non
Linux systems.  Of _course_ I want Linux FOSS software for this.

Also, none of the MP3 files in the collection have tags.  I
can tell the song names, track numbers, and artists from the
directory structure and file names.  But, that schema doesn't
indicate the album titles.  But, I *can* see album titles in the
XML file.  For extra credit, I'd like to find a program that can
read the XML file and tag the MP3s with that information.

Thanks all....
