Okay, I need some of your expert advice.
Some years ago, when we got our first iPod Classic (which wasn't classic back then, haha), I spent an ENTIRE weekend swapping out and ripping CD's, one every 10 minutes or so. FOR HOURS!!
Well, do to then-space limitations, we ended up parsing some of those songs and deleting them.
I would like to undergo a repeat project, over the course of a few weeks of course, of re-ripping ALL of my CDs to ensure that ALL of our music is in iTunes.
Will iTunes advise me when a CD is being duplicated so I can save the time it takes ripping that one and allow me to move on to the next?
If not, once I've re-ripped my 2 or 300 CDs, is there a simple way to delete the dupicates out of iTunes? What if they are different versions of the same song - exactly but from different sources (different CDs, like Artist X, then Artist X Greatest Hits, or Artist X as part of a soundtrack compilation).
What if they are different versions such as a live version, or an extended version?
Thanks for your experienced input!
