I think either one of two things are happening. Either one he
understands the program fully and he really doesn't like it or two he
doesn't understand it and is frustrated. I remember my woos with I
Tunes and someone said on the list that if you take time to understand
exactly what is going on with the app you'll grow to love it. For me
I've found it to be a wonderful application and pretty much handles
most of my audio needs. I use other audio apps for editing and such
but for podcast, general music and simple burns it's perfect. It also
works seemlessly with the I Pod and that's another reason why I love
it so much.

Maybe I'm confused here, but if you just open a file, you don't have
to add it to your play lists or anything else. Once Itunes opens it,
it'll just start playing. That checkbox mentioned does keep Itunes
from adding everything it opens to the library.

Right, That stops iTunes from copying files into library, which is
definitely a good thing, but it doesn't let you use iTunes without
putting a file into the library. It just doesn't go far enough for
me.

I'm not sure if this will help, but as mentioned a few times
before, there is a checkbox in iTunes preferences under the
advance tab where you can not have items moved to the library.
Again, I don't know if this is what you were looking for, and I
have not messed with it yet.
Take Care

The vm messages are my latest itunes nucence. For some reason
they don't preview in quicklook, which would be wonderful. I
usually only just need to right down a date or time or
ocasionally a phone number, then I want the message to
disappear. This saving, opening in itunes, adding it to my
library, listening, deleting, and removing from library, it's the
long way around.
I'm home this weekend, and one of my projects is going to be to
sort out my media. I need to burn a tonne of stuff, and i'm
going to move all my albums onto the macbook so I can take them
back to Toronto with me. I've decided I don't want 1200 albums
librafied, but what really sparked me off was when I accidentally
hit the rong button on the buss the other day and over 600
audiobook tracks got slammed into my itunes library. Oh my
goondness it was rather a large mess, and only myself to blaim.
Best,
Erik

you know you could do what i do for voicemail messages, that's
save the vm messages, and not open them yet just press space to
listen to them in the quick look. Also you could select all
files in audiobooks, and do command I and tell it to skip
tracks. I am cool with vlc, but one thing i use it for is .avi
files and also i dont know how to set up play lists in it.

Well guys, it's byebye itunes for me. I will probably use it
as a pod catcher, since it works quite well in that regard, but
it's VLC for me from now on. I'm sick of it importing my voice
mail messages and audiobooks into my music library, and all the
other rediculous clouning around it does just to listen to music.
Glad that's over... Fwew!
