And bullets are for Steve Jobs head. Or at least whatever programming team designed iTunes. Alright so, for a while now I haven't had my full library of music on my computer, but I recently got around to getting everything all in one place. Until I did that I had about 400 songs on my computer. I made sure that all of the songs were equalized correctly and that they all had album names, covers, correct artist names, I put "comments" on some of them and orgainzed them into smart playlists and all that stuff. Then I uploaded the 900 or so songs that I had on my PS3 onto my computer through a long annoying process of manually copying every single one of them to my phone and then waiting the half hour as my computer sputtered trying to keep up with the huge file transfer.. And then I realized I had to go through the whole process again with all those songs. Fair enough I suppose, it's my fault for downloading everything from FrostWire/LimeWire/Online Torrents/Places that aren't iTunes unless I couldn't find it anywhere else and then not keeping up with all the album names. So I started to make a dent in all of them, I tackled Simple Plan which is big because I have pretty much every single song by them and I made sure they were all from the right album and that all of the albums were spelled correctly and all showed up under a single album instead of multiple ones.. But apparently when you drag something into the iTunes window off of say, a phone, it doesn't make a copy of the file onto your computer. It just reads the file through your phone. Which I wouldn't have really known because I did this the night before going on the long drive to Vermont, so after I copied everything I just left my phone plugged in to charge. Whatever I listened to played fine because it was reading off my phone. But when I came back today wanting to relax and listen to some music I found out that; SURPRISEEE!!! WE DIDN'T COPY THE FILES TO YOUR COMPUTERRR!!! So I got all of those annoying little exclamation marks that pop up next to a song when iTunes doesn't know where it is, complete with the "Oh, we can't find it. You can manually sift through your entire computer and see if you can scruff it up if you want. We'll play it THEN!" error message. So now I had to delete everything from the iTunes library, including all of the songs that I equalized perfectly and balanced out, and start from scratch. Yay for iTunes.
