    Is there a script floating around so that iTunes will watch my music folder and import any new music into the library? It seems like there should also be a way to do this in Automator but I don't know how to. Any help is appreciated.

    Could it be done with Folder Actions?

    That is what I was thinking so I headed over to Doug's to see if it had been done and low and behold it has, haven't tested it personally so don't know how well it actually works.
