I have a LOT of playlists in iTunes. Many of them are purely to filter items out of other playlists. For instance, I don't want live stand-up comedy tracks or skits/spoken tracks being played when I shuffle music, so I'll create an "Exclude" playlist. I also have smartlists of some file types, such as an "AAC" playlist of AAC files.

Some of these playlists are syncing to my iPad even though they are not selected to in the options. All of the items in the playlists are not syncing, only items that are part of more than one playlist. For instance, some of those comedy tracks may be part of a "Comedy" playlist that I sync to the iPad, but then the "Exclude" playlist makes it over with those comedy tracks in it.

Am I doing something wrong, or is this a glitch?
