an extra tweak

find ~/Music/* -type f -name *.mp3 > ~/Music/Playlist.m3u
id personally use the following:
find ~/Music -type f -name *.[mM][pP]3 > ~/Music/Playlist.m3u
then u get all mp3-files even if they are named *.Mp3 or *.mP3 or *.MP3
hope this helps for people wodering why not all mp3-files get in the list...
also remeber not to have any files ening with .mp3 (or other cases) in the directory where you run this command since it then will do this:
we have foo.mp3 in the dir we do search from (say homedir)
then it will only look for foo.mp3 in your ~/Music dir...
