id really like to clean up my itunes library, but ive got a stupid-huge amount of music. using the "display exact duplicates" option, i have in the thousands of duplicates. My total library is far too large to effectively "backup" as apple recommends, so im a little hesitant to use some of these scripts that are available. As for the physical music location, some of it is "track" duplicates from itunes, but others are actual file duplicates. All the duplicates seem to have been added at virtually the same time, so i cant sort the library by "date added" and simply delete half of it. Does anyone have an idea of how i can get rid of some of these other than doing it one by one?
EDIT: is there a way to maybe uninstall itunes for good and re-import everything? I did the simple uninstall method before, but when i reinstalled it itunes still had all the duplicates so somewhere it seems its saving its library information. i have far more "track" duplicates than file duplicates it seems
