Creating a Playlist
A playlist is a customized list of digital music files. Using
playlists, you can group various digital music files together
and determine the order in which you want the files to play.

various CDs or even a playlist that contains background
music for a slide show.
Use Windows Media Player to create playlists and then play
them back using Media Center.
