Re: Importing files into iTunes

Now the way forward seems to be:
- copy all files to a 'safe location' on the user's hard drive
- import the files into iTunes
- compare the paths of the resulting iTunes tracks with the imported files, and delete the originals if the paths are different.

Before I implement all of this: is this the right approach?

Don't know if it's right, but I would do so, too. Probably it's enough to compare one path of one "test" song file - provided you've checked before import that the file does not exist yet in iTunes' library, just in case you're not lucky.
