I hear you. Apple lossless of .flac is better than any .mp3. I disagree about allowing iTunes to catalog your music. I've never had any problems, but again, I'm very engaged with my iTunes and understand it's functionality better than 99% of people. At least iTunes uses normal files and folder names so that you can manually navigate the collection if necessary. One hard to spot problem is if the iTunes Library index looses track of music you have, but there is a script that can find any discrepancies in your iTunes Library. I've only needed it once, when I was a neophyte and thought I could merge two libraries that were disjoint by simply dragging the 2nd library's music folders into the other's collection. Didn't work, but luckily it was relatively easy to fix. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
