Well .. That is one step in the right direction ... But as you say below .. You then have a library list full of "cannot find the song" links... Also .. It does not help with iTunes ability to totally mix up the order of tracks with no apparent pattern ... A list I just tried has the songs just numbered ... So .. They show up in iTunes like that: 9,5,27,26,12,11,1,21,19 ... Do I need to go on ?? :) sure I can just sort by track name .. But why is iTunes creating this disorder in the first place ??
