I spent such a long time organizing my music and audiobooks on my hard drive - will this copy every thing to someplace else? we have my hd partitioned, with one of them being the data drive; on that drive/partition, I have a folder titled Books and Music - books are in one sub-folder and music in another. Will this consolidation move everything over to the applications drive/partition where iTunes resides? what if I don't want them there?
