By default, if he plays his music with Itunes then Itunes will import
it to the library so when all importation is complete he can copy the
library wherever he likes and follow the steps I've already outlined.
Further to this, if your friend knows where his MP3 collection is and
he wants to add it to the Itunes library all in 1 go, he can just use
the "import" button and select the location or locations of his MP3
collection.

Subject: Re: itunes library on external drive?
Ok, well I kept an Itunes library on my external hard drive when I
used to use Itunes to store music, I don't use it any longer
preferring to use VLC but that's another matter for another day
<smile>.
If your friend wishes to use a library on an external drive then
just copy the "itunes" folder to the desired location on the
external drive. Start Itunes and hold down the option key, Itunes
will then prompt you to choose a library, point Itunes to the
location of the library on the external drive and everything
should be fine.
