Okay, I've trashed the old iTunes library and recreated it using mp3 format. So far, so good.

Now, I'm trying to go through the iTunes library and kill duplicates. This is a bit challenging, as I have to find them to kill them. I'm going through the files, which is the safer way to do it, from my point of view. This way, I see when the file was created, so I know whether it was copied or converted from a wma. If I have a converted wma and an original mp3, I kill the converted wma-cum-mp3.

But I can't always match up "album from original collection" with "album in iTunes library", and I'd like to be able to do an easy inventory and comparison. I want to know if everything's now in the iTunes library, as well as what's redundant there. I'll keep the original collection as a paranoid back up.

Meanwhile, we are crossing our fingers on the tablet. It is supposedly on its way, and UPS confirms there is a package. Of course, the company we got it from wouldn't listen to [livejournal.com profile] mnemex when he said that it was important to put the floor number in, so they left it out, and UPS can't add it until there's been a failed delivery attempt. I'm hoping that the first delivery attempt will actually succeed. Hence, fingers crossed.
