Yes, by default Itunes will copy files into the library, that's why I
suggest you use the "add Files To Library feature, this way you can
control what Itunes does by clicking the "do not copy files to
library" button, that way the tags are added to the library and
that's it.
I have to say that Itunes has a very comprehensive help tutorial ,
every time I look it over I always pick up something I didn't know.

Hi again Dane,
I understand what you meant about the library but I am wondering
something. I am so used, int windows this is, to navigating to a
folder and just opening the music or play that's in it. If I use the
Itunes library, does it literally copy all the files into the folder
for itunes or will it just collect all the tags? I only ask because I
seem to have this idea that it might make duplicate files and i'll
end up with two sets of music folders.
Hope this makes sense

Hi again!
Well firstly, I'm far from an expert on Itunes but allot of factors
come into play here, you're probably better "Adding songs to
library" with command-O from Itunes.
Next, how are the ID3 tags set in your tracks?

Hi folks,
How can I persuade Itunes to open files in the same order I select
them. For instance, when selecting a folder of files using the
finder, it sorts the list alphabetically, even though the files are
numbered 01 - 11 etc. Is there a reason for this?
Winamp allowed you to turn this behaviour off and only sort by the
pathname.
Best
