yeah, I've had lots of weirdness with iTunes also. It seems to happen after 'uupgrades' where song randomly get 'lost' and iTunes has to be redirected to the files. Some time ago a bunch of my songs got duplicate or even triplicate entries. Sometimes one of them is a bad tag - sometimes not.

All this weirdness with iTunes makes me EXTREMELY apprehensive about importing my entire library to itunes.

I seem to recall seeing where you can host music files for iTunes on a server file, but I don't know the specifics. I wonder what would happen if you were to re-import that music to iTunes? Trouble is - you'd have to redo all of your playlists.... I often have difficulty understanding the popularity of iTunes.

I wonder if this is unique to windows or if apple users have this problem also.
