<< That was my plan, and then I had to rebuild my iTunes
library...so I'm back to the old fashion way...which
is kind of nice, because I'm giving some stuff second
(and in some cases first) chances due to the lists
I've seen so far.
Too much music, too little time - and I can listen to
stuff 40 hrs a week @ work. >>
Actually, this touches on a point I've been meaning to ask the list about
for awhile. Has anyone figured out a way--IF there is a way--that you can
save all of your play counts and last played information from iTunes if you
buy a new computer, and need to move everything to the new computer? I think
there's an XML file somewhere that contains the information, though I'd
imagine you'd have to rebuild the entire library with the EXACT same path as
before to make it work.
Any suggestions? I work in very data-intensive marketing and as such am kind
of a stats nerd; if anything, that's been one of the coolest functions of
iTunes for me and if I lose the ability to data-mine the past two years of
playing I might just cry.
