I don't know about any of that cause I pretty much avoid it altogether. Most of my stuff is either labeled in Greek or has names like Track 01.mp3, and trying to use ITunes with things like that is impossible. No thanks. I'd rather just make my own folders and use them with VLC. Best program out there, though occasionally, I do need to use Realplayer. Also, check out TapeDeck for general recording. It's wonderful!
