hmm, I can use ITunes with anything I want no matter what the label.
It takes a good deal of manual work for some of my strange stuff but
it works well.

I don't know about any of that cause I pretty much avoid it
altogether. Most of my stuff is either labeled in Greek or has names
like Track 01.mp3, and trying to use ITunes with things like that is
impossible. No thanks. I'd rather just make my own folders and use
them with VLC. Best program out there, though occasionally, I do need
to use Realplayer. Also, check out TapeDeck for general recording.
It's wonderful!

Hum, I just can't hear the word ITunes without breaking out in a sweat
and frothing at the mouth. Of course, my sighted family insists that
if I could see I'd like it a lot better, but then I lmao'ed at them
for over half an hour while two of my sighted siblings struggled in
vain to locate an audiobook that my brother imported into ITunes so he
could get it to the nanno he got for christmas. And that's not even
getting into what happens when Itunes loads with network or external
drives not mounted, and what it does if you plug in more than one IPod
without custom libraries, or...
It's the most horrible piece of software I've ever used in my life and
the hell of it is, it's 100% accessible, lol.

I love it that ITunes puts everything I open in the library. The
neatest thing about it is that you cn have it not copy the files to
the itunes music folder so if you want, you can just delete the
entry. I see no advantage of using any other player. I doubt
anything but ITunes will read the ITunes library.

Thanks so much.
That helped a lot...
It's irritating that iTunes adds everything one open into the
library. So now it will be better.
But another VLC-related question...Can one get VLC to read the
iTunes-library in the newest "stable" version of VLC?

Hi David,
You can do this from within get info. Hit command-I on an mp3 file.
Interact with the scroll area if you're using Leopard (as far as I
recall this step wasn't necessary in tiger). Use VO navigation, the
item chooser, or whatever method you prefer to find the open with
section. If you've never modified your settings, this will probably
be set to iTunes. Whatever the selection is currently, it'll be a
pop
up menu, so hit space on that and use your arrows to scroll up or
down
to VLC. VO right a few times from there until you get to change
all,
the OS will bring up a dialog confirming you really want to do that,
and once you confirm it you should be in business.
Hth, let us know if you run in to any issues.

I'd like to set VLC as the default player for mp3-files.

Is ther other ways to get it work?
