Because of iTunes two music management styles, it a royal pain in the
butt to move iTunes music to another machine WHILE maintaining your play
lists. Too many variables and iTunes is all too happy to stick its big
butt into the process promptly ditching the playlists.
I just don't understand why these big Apple and MS corps ... who want us
to love their products ... don't put ANY energy or thought into making
it EASY and CONSISTENT for use to take our music and mail with us to our
new machines they so much want to sell us every several years.
It appears they only think about it occasionally... as an afterthought!
"What? They want to keep their mail... their music playlists?"
God forbid should we want to change from a PC to a Mac or the other way
around while moving our music or mail...
Why is it good business to let us twist in wind?

That is an option that can be set in iTunes preferences. So if you
don't like it you have only yourself to blame.
On the other hand, I do let iTunes manage my music files and I see no
problem with how it organizes them. The organizational scheme is
intuitive and you get lost there is a "Reveal in Finder" command in
iTunes. I have never had a problem getting to and moving iTunes music
files via the Finder. I see no problem here.
