[iTunes] Re: Auto eject after import?

[Kunga]

I forgot to mention that after the first CD has finished ripping, I 
eject it and place the next one that I had already edited. The edits I 
made are RETAINED in the iTunes database and the already edited CD's 
data will return ready for ripping and so forth and so on.
