iTunes: auto shutoff?

Hello all,

Just got my first Mac, a Mini, and am loving it! The radio library in iTunes is incredible.

I'd like to go to sleep to a streaming radio station, then have it shut off after a couple of hours (so as not to use station bandwidth unnecessarily). Anyone know of a way to do this? I've looked, but no luck so far.

Thanks!

Well not sure about iTunes specifically but you can set it so your computer shuts off at a certain time every night and boots up in the morning in System Preferences -> Energy Saver -> Schedule.

You could set it to shut off the mini when you are sleeping and turn on before you wake up in the morning

For everyone, no matter why they're reading this: there are a bunch of free programs out there, that will shut down your computer for you, or turn itunes off/on, basically a way to get things down w/o writing your own applescript.
