BeatScanner is a music-analysis application for Windows. This application allows you to analyze your music and find out what their beats per minute are. The author of BeatScanner owns a workout website, so he is marketing this application for those who need to find music that is good for workouts. It is thought that songs with higher BPMs will make you want to keep going for longer or will give you bursts of energy. So, once you scan your library with BeatScanner you can have the application scan all or some of your songs and tell you their BPMs. Then, you can make a playlist of songs. You can save that playlist to your hard drive or even upload it to an MP3 device. BeatScanner also can retrieve a list of known songs that have high BPMs so that you can purchase them, and it will even suggest songs that are similar to those on your playlist. I found that, since BeatScanner doesn't seem to be compatible with iTunes, the range of devices that it supports for direct copy is limited to non-Apple products. But you can always drag the .mp3 files manually to iTunes, though.
