upgrade includes defective tracks and refunded tracks
My upgrade, should I proceed with it, would include tracks and albums that I purchased, discovered defects in, deleted from my computer, and got refunds for from Apple. At least one of the tracks still has the defect as evidenced by its presence in the track's preview on iTunes. I purchased these albums as CDs from other sources and ripped them myself. I'm (somewhat) okay with having to pay for "upgrades," but I can't justify paying again for defective tracks. There really should be an alternative to the "all or nothing" upgrade path. Apple really didn't think this through well enough.
