"""Removes all files from disk and iTunes library on a specific playlist
Created on Feb 12, 2011
Prompts for verification before actually deleting all files
At first, I was going to iterate over the whole library and just grab
all the tracks with one star. But that's slow on large libraries, so I
decided to keep that logic in iTunes by creating a smart playlist named
'Files to kill' that contains only files with one star. Then I just
grab all the tracks in that playlist. Keeps the script faster, although
it still needs to grab the entire library once to get access to the root
track object.
