What is a Playlist?

A Playlist is a list of music tracks you organize and name.

When you save a Playlist, FreeAmp gives the Playlist a file extension name of .m3u. M3u and .pls files are actually small text files that contain only the name and directory to locate the mp3 files on your computer that are in that Playlist.

When you open a Playlist, FreeAmp locates the files in the list and begins playback in the order you specified.

When the Music Browser searches for Playlists on your computer, it looks for .m3u or .pls files and then adds them to your Music Collection in the Playlist folder.
