So this weekend one of my little mini-projects was transferring my iTunes library from my old external hard drive to my new one (750GB!)1 When all that was through, I finally had the space to import the 5- or 6-and-a-half GB of music that had been steadily accumulating on my desktop, and then process it--getting album art, adjusting volume, checking all the id3 tags, et cetera.

1. If you find yourself in a similar situation, do not, as I did, copy all the files by hand and then switch your default library. That won't work, even if you do a find-and-replace in your Library.xml file after, as I discovered a year or so ago but obviously forgot. Follow the instructions here for a more harmonious experience.?
