[MacDV] I-Tunes question

[ShirleyK]

Yes. The Library is the complete list. Playlists (folders) contain 
pointers to the songs. You are neither moving nor copying the song when 
you drag it to a playlist. You can put the same song in multiple 
playlists. If you're ever about to delete the real song, you'll be 
asked if you want to remove it from the disk. (That might be a 
preference you can turn off. I wouldn't do that.)

After years of use, I still keep all the messages asking me if I'm sure 
I want to clear the items in the list when I'm working on the 
playlists. It's reassuring to see that I'm doing what I intend to do 
(clear the playlist and not remove the songs).
