Well I lost the playlists and wasted a lot of time... why not feel resentful?

Is this the one you are talking about ... or did you find something better?
http://www.apple.com/support/ilife/tutorials/itunes/it7-2.html

This one is a rather scattered/ conflicting collection of directions (If you logically just follow the 1.2.3.4 steps laid out you will end up with no playlists). It makes no mention of the different procedures required by managed or unmanaged libraries except how to set your ipod ... and doesn't address the other obvious need... moving the library out and keeping iTunes where it is.
It isn't rocket science ... the techniques needed are only 4 or so.
How hard would it be for them to just document those... and not leave us scratching around ... wiping out play lists etc? The device is all over the place and people discuss the problem a lot on lists. Trying to assemble a set of comprehensive tips that cover the various iTunes move possibilities is harder than most IT work I do.

Anybody know of a good resource on this subject?

I resent a lack of info / guidance for a procedure that most anyone who really uses iTunes to any degree is absolutely going to need. Like a bank taking your money deposits but not giving you any way to transfer them reliably. "Gee ... they disappeared? You're upset?"

When I needed to move my iTunes library I found detailed step-by-step instructions at the Apple website. Nothing to feel resentful over.
