iTunes 11.0.2: A Little Thing

An apparently undocumented, at least not in plain sight, change in iTunes 11.0.2 is the ability to sort music tracks by composer — just right-click (two-finger tap) on the column bar and select “composer” from the pop-up menu.

To install iTunes 11.0.2, you will be a Mac running OS X 10.6.8 or later.

And, if you haven’t yet installed Snow Leopard, believe it or not, but Apple’s selling OS X 10.6.8 on DVD for a rather reasonable $19.99.
