    Hi,

    I have the following mp3 files which I want to import
    to Itunes:

    01.01_20Heritage_20and_20Destiny.mp3
    01.02_20Heritage_20and_20Destiny.mp3
    01.03_20Heritage_20and_20Destiny.mp3
    ...etc...

    Now after importing to Itunes it
    convered the names into: Track 01, Track 02, Track 03.

    Is there a way I can make Itunes to keep filenames AS IT IS in the library
    instead of converting it into Track XX version?

    That's because the files are not tagged properly.

    If you actually buy the music, it would be tagged properly.

    It's got nothing to do with tagging properly. You can set iTunes not to automatically organise your library, but I've noticed even then it does weird things to files sometimes.

    If you actually bought a proper computer and ran a proper OS on it along with say j.River Media Center or MediaMonkey Gold, your music would be organised the way you want it to be properly.
